Congrats! You are going to love Dr. A. I had my surgery with him in April and I am loving life:) Feel free to send me a PM if you have any questions:) VV2010

Amanda - That is the coolest news ever! What you've gone through will help you every day as a PE teacher. Those are some lucky kids:) Have fun!!! VV2010

I am a fan of the Chocolate Truffle and Cappucino - after trying all the samples, they are my favorites. I cannot stand the smell of the all the fruity ones. Definitely order the sample pack:)

Yay Angie - way to go!!!!!!

Mini-me That is AWESOME! Way to go! I know I would cry if I got to that point too:) Congrats to you:)

OK Happy Destiny that is amazing progress! Good for you!

Best of luck to you tomorrow for smooth day:) Glad you found this forum - it has been incredibly helpful to me and I know it will answer lots of your questions. We'll all be sending good thoughts your way tomorrow:)

All of your feelings are normal - this is a major life change - and also the best decision I've ever made. WELCOME:) Congrats to you!

My doctor didn't. See.....the best part about this forum is that you can ask absolutely anything! Good luck:)

Wannalise - Take a deep breath and look at your overall progress - it is UNBELIEVABLE!!! I totally know what you are talking about because I have been a bit out of control myself with carbs lately, and have been doing that negative self talk in my head. I really have to remind myself that THIS TIME I am not going to fail and neither are you my friend! Work on forgiving yourself......you are getting back on track and will be back in your routine shortly. I hope tomorrow is a brighter day for you:) VV2010:thumbup1:

Christie!!!!!!! I just watched about half of your video and I can't wait to watch the rest later! You look great and have made wonderful progress! I can totally identify with so many things you said....especially the 260 lb mark:) Thanks for sharing your journey! VV2010

NSV stands for non-scale victory. There is a great thread in the success stories someone started called NSV shout outs that is really inspiring!

Great update and nice work:) Have a fantastic time on your cruise!

I think it is awesome that you are being so supportive of your mom! That is great:)

You will do just fine! If you read this site, it will help calm your nerves - that worked well for me because I had so many questions. Best of luck!

Congrats on your great progress! Definitely keep us posted about the tv possibility - very cool:)

Things for me got better a little each day - keep walking around - it helps:) Good luck!

You are on your way Kathy! Best of luck:)

Glad everything went so well:) You are going to love your sleeve!

I just checked your pics - amazing progress!!! Keep up the great work and enjoy celebrating your success!

I would google bariatric surgeons in your area. That is what I did when I first started my search. I ended up calling each one individually to find out their prices. Good luck!

Jenn - You look phenomenal! It is amazing to me how much younger you look too when I looked at your before/after pics:) Congrats to you on your huge accomplishment and thanks for the inspiration! VV2010
