Having surgery in Mexico on the 31st. I didn't have to send a deposit. All depends on the Dr.

Cedar Hill here, always nice to make new friend. Getting sleeved August 31.

@TxMimi. I'm not in Mansfield, but I am in Cedar Hill. So I'm right down the street. Going to Mexico on the 31st.

I'm in the Dallas area!! Not sleeved yet, August 31, i join the club!!

I'm pre-op, have to wait till 8/31. I only have a few close friends and just like me they are fat, we eat together, we play together, then we eat again. One of the friends if very supportive, even to the point that she is looking into surgery herself. The other has looked into it but because her PCP refused to support her she abandoned the idea. the later is really worrying me. In the last few weeks, she has almost stopped calling and doesn't return calls for days. We have been friends for more than 20 years (all fat) and i don't want to loose that. All her words are supportive, but her actions are not. Can i fix this before it gets any worse?

I will be with Dr Kelly at Oasis of Hope Hospital.

So glad it's not just me. Still have a few days left before liquids. But I've been weaning off sodas for a few days. Honestly, I think I'll miss my Coca Cola more than the food.

I've got 32 days to go and i think i'm becoming obsessed. I have made the decision to no tell anyone, only hubby, kids know. Last night i had a dream that a cousin of mine, that i rarely speak to, called me and needed to talk to me. She came to my house to tell me she was have the sleeve done. Mind you, she is at most 10lbs over and probably wears a size 8, never been overweight and was back in her jeans in a month after having kids. She told me she didn't want me to be jealous, so she was telling me herself. She said the Dr agreed to do it so she didn't get fat. AArrr!!! woke up in a funk!! I know I'm doing the right thing, but i hope this kind of thing doesn't continue. Could make for a long month.

Readytolose, I am scheduled for Dr Kelly on 8/31 also. I need a buddy my nerves are getting to me already.

It's comforting to hear success stories concerning Dr Kelly. Will be sleeved by him on August 31.

Dr Kelly in Tijuana on August 31.

I'm still pre-op, but... Honeybee and I are renewing our vows on the beaches of Hawaii in 2015 on our 10th wedding anniversary. I was a big kid, a big teen and a big bride. My Honeybee loves me, but i want to ROCK a tiny fitted beach wedding gown!!!!!
