I was on 6 Mt. dews a day. As soon as I decided to get the surgery, I quit cold turkey. It was easy, except for dry mouth.

Welcome, Welcome. Sounds like you are off to a GREAT start. When I get my sleeve, I hope to do as well.

My husband is a auto hauling trucker for PMTG. He is only home about 6 days a month. He and I are both overweight. Eating on the road, with very little exercise is his problem. Being a mostly-single mom, my issue is eating while bored and being lonely. Trucking is a hard life for sure. Good luck with your surgery and your journey.

Hi and welcome!

Welcome to the group!!!!

Thanks for the update and we are so excited for you!!!! Every day will get better, I'm sure.

I KNOW!!!! Holy Sh*T!!! Everyday, I'm like stalking the mailman.

It's called "Team Illan".

Yay for the Illan club. Me too for the 7th, but due to the silly IRS, may be moving it back.

I got the card for surgery in TJ. 4 to 6 weeks for $55.00

Welcome, Welcome!!!!!

LOL, you said her!!!!

Someone on here said the sleeve surgery is tax deductible. Can someone explain this to me. Please and thank you.

Dr. Illan oversews.

My hair is thin anyway. I know it will get thinner and I have alway wanted to shave my head. Crazy, I know. A month ago I just said screw it. I shaved it! Now I have no maintance, it is so easy. I bought several different wigs. Now I get to rock a different color, length and style everyday. Even my husband loves my bald head!

Aussie, I thought you were leaving?!

AussieLady, don't let the door hit ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My letters that I have already written go over how special they are and our time together. It also covers events for the future. Dating, marriage, babies, college, etc. I fear the plane rides more than anything.

hhhmmmm? I have no idea. I guess I need to ask Omar.
