Any of you that have been diagnosed with B12 deficiency, what were your symptoms? I'm afraid that is what's going on with me. Help!!!

Day 7 (of 14) on my pre-op diet and down 11 lbs!!! Woohoo! Can't wait til next Monday to get this behind me.

I'm on the 27th too! =) My Dr. says 2 nights minimum.

Start my liquid diet in the morning. I think I'm the most nervous about the pre-op diet, honestly. Any last minute tips for me... Thanks!!!

Some how my name got on the list twice - KRBullardRN on August 27. Hope everyone is doing great! I start my liquid diet Monday.... Very nervous about this first step...

August 27th my sleeve is being done so excited yet so nervous start Optifast 8/13.

My sleeve will be August 27th as well. And I'm also starting pre-op diet the 13th too!!!

Name: Kelly

Age: 31

From: Pittsburg, Texas

Highest Weight/Current Weight/Goal Weight: 253/240/150 or less

About Me: I'm a RN (admissions coordinator) at our local 25 bed hospital. I've been married to my hubby for 8 years. We have 2 little boys, ages 4 and 2. I have struggled with my weight for the past 8-9 years, but I have really had a problem since having my first child in 2007. Things I love: fishing, shopping, decorating, anything that has to do with Water (swimming, Water parks, water sports, etc...), and my current obsession is VST. I cannot get enough of everyone's experiences and advice. I absolutely LOVE this site/app. I'm sure I'm missing a lot but that's a start.

=)

I'm in on the trip next year (or two)!!!

Love this post. Keep the suggestions coming please!

QOTB.....

I am planning on a cruise for my husband and I. We haven't been on a real vacation since our honeymoon in 2004. I'm already scoping out the options for our cruise next year! Can't wait to look better and healthier in a swimsuit!

Anyone have an opinion on this one? Haven't heard many people talk about it....

45 days to go for me. When I got my surgery date yesterday I had a 'slight freak out' moment, but it didn't last long. I'm super excited now!!!

Anyone here from Texas? Fort Worth here! I am also having my surgery with Dr. Scott Stowers' date=' anyone else?[/quote']

Northeast Texas here. Surgery in Tyler, Tx. About a hour away from home. =)

31 here, class of 1999! Sleeve surgery set for August 27! I cannot wait! I was 7 months pregnant with my last child at our 15 year reunion so I wasn't looking hot at all, lol. Can't wait to look good and show off the New me!!!

Thanks!!! Runner, my first born will be 5 on August 28.

Hi all! I'm hoping for an end of August date. My paperwork will be sent insurance probably next week and they usually respond within 2 days. My doctor's nurse told me yesterday she has him scheduled through Aug 9. So I'm hoping for August "new birthday" as well. We'll see. I'll let yall know as soon as I know. I'm addicted to this app on my phone. So much good info on here! I will be having my surgery at ETMC hospital in Tyler, Texas with Dr. Babineau! Love all of his staff! I have about 100 lbs if not more to lose.

Live in Winnsboro moving to Pittsburg, Tx soon. Will be having surgery @ ETMC in Tyler with Dr. Babineau. Date to be determined. Finishing my consults tomorrow! Then hopefully will be approved! I'd love to meet folks in the northeast Texas area to talk with!

Hi made2beme. I hope all goes well with your surgery. I can't wait to have a date to look forward too!

Hey to all of y'all. My surgery will be in Tyler, TX. Anyone from around that area? I'd love to find some people from around my area to talk to!

Thanks ready4success. I'll look for them!
