    Good luck... On on your way to a happier lifestyle. Nerves are normal, but it will be over before you know it:)

    Preparing For Cancun

    The Westin will also have shampoo and conditioner, if you don't want to bring your own. Maybe bring a book or reader since your on your own. I brought crystal light powder single servings to put in my water...helped a lot. Bring gas ex strips. Also don't overpack the clothes, you won't need them and you can't lug heavy luggage after surgery. Good luck, you'll do fine:)

    Swimming?

    My surgeon said no swimming or baths for 4 weeks. He also said all scabs should be gone. It was hard after surgery sitting by the pool at the Marriott and not jumping in:)

    42.8 Bmi And Hypothyroid

    I also have hypothyroid, actually my thyroid was removed due to a goiter and multi nodules. I looked at this surgery as a way to finally lose weight and keep it off. So far it seems to be working:).

    I Can't Wait To Not Have To...

    Can't wait to not panic when at a restaraunt they are about to seat us at a booth, and I'm wondering if I can fit! Can't wait to not have to worry if my shirt is pulled down all the way in the back, so my big b---- is not showing:)
  11. Your doing fantastic....keep on losing you got it now!

    What Is Your Goal Weight ?!

    I'm 5'9" and my goal weight is 160 at least, maybe 150. I remember that weight and it has been a long time since I've seen it:). I was size 10 to 12, but not that concerned with size as long as I never have to go to the plus section again!

    Any July 17Th Sleevers Or Close To That Date

    Overreacting?

    So far I have taken the path of only my husband and myself know about my surgery for this very reason. Our families live out of state so we haven't even told them. I just didn't feel like dealing with the haters. When I was deciding rather to tell a few friends, my husband cautioned me, if you tell some, more will find out. Just hoe people are, sad but true. Just move on and keep on losing....this too shall pass:)

    July Sleevers

    I would just tell them your trying to do some strict dieting, they'll soon notice anyway. No need to tell the about your surgery, just say it's a doctor supervised diet:)That way you can still be present and socialize.

    Terrified

    Candy 1980 I feel so bad for you. But I am glad and proud of you that you are seeking help. Hopefully you'll get past this . Maybe try things that you really liked before the sleeve in little amounts, just so you experience different foods. Than if this is successful maybe you can return to only real healthy foods. Just a thought, best of luck and keep us posted:)

    Clothes Suck

    I hope your approval will go quickly, so you will never have to face this awful dilemma again:) just keep positive and focus on the fact that soon you will begin to fit in everything and most of your current clothes will need to be replaced with stylin smaller clothes.

    My 1St Roadblock

    I'm so sorry to hear about your dads passing, my thoughts and prayers are with you. There is nothing worse than dealing with unorganized clueless people that should be professional and have it together. But with that said, this too shall pass and think of all the positive changes your making with your life:)
