  1. I am April 10th and have my preop on April 4th! Getting excited! Wish my mom was 100 % on board with my decision. Said I should stop eating Dairy Queen everyday. Really? I wish I ate dairy queen everyday. Good thing my husband is 100 on board!
  2. I am April 10th too. I'm from MI

  8. I have told a few people and have already noticed a changed attitude towards me, others are supportive! I'm not advertising or denying.
  9. I appreciate your honest experience! I am scared but if I know what to expect I can handle it better. Thanks for sharing!
  10. Good luck to all of you getting sleeved this week! I am getting sleeved on 4-10! Keep updating us! I am nervous about pain!
  11. I am walking now and will wait to see how I feel after surgery. I like having a goal. Re: half marathon... Knowing ahead of time that you will walk is realistic. Take your time and listen to your body. Were you an athlete?

  13. You look great! I hope I look that good after month2
  14. Hi! Let's keep in touch! I am a little nervous but excited about a new chapter in my life. Good luck to you!
  15. I did the Beth Moore study and I feel women do! No after studying Esther and talking with my Bible study friends decade all trying to be truly supportive to each other on all areas of our lives. We hope that is what Jesus wants us to do. BTW love Beth Moore! Enjoy the Study! One more thing...I am struggling with surgery...am I messing with Gods work?
  16. I am having surgery on April 10th and wondering if I will be healed enough to run a 5k by June 10th?
  17. Keep us posted! Tell me everything and good luck on your journey!
  18. I can't wait to shop at a regular size store with my friends instead of avoiding shopping with them. I also can't wait to be competing in sports again. Right now I feel like I don't get asked to go for runs or walks because I am too big! I'd also can't wait to sit in my car with a thick winter coat and turn the wheel without holding my breath! How about walking through the sand at the beach without stopping half way there and stop and rest while the rest of my family is running.
