I dont have many before pics b/c I avoided the camera or deleted unflattering pics

Pics of scars, excess skin, stretch marks and dimples... for people researching theses things. For reference I am 5'2", 34 yrs old, currently 152 lbs (starting weight 217lbs), and Im 8 months out from surgery.

I agree! That broth WAS magical! I wish I had the recipe!

I have surgery on the 17th. I will be getting picked up on the morning of the 17th in San Diego. You are the closest person I know to my surgery date too. I originally wanted to do it on the 18th but Omar said Dr. Kelly already was booked for the 18th...small world ha ha! I'll message you my number and info and we can keep in touch since we'll be there at the same time...even if its different hospitals

I just asked today and Omar didn't say 2 checks to me, but he did say to make it out to Dr. Kelly's full name.

Thanks for asking this because I was wondering the same thing. My surgery date with Dr. Kelly is 2 weeks from today and trying to get all the little stuff figured out.

I have been absorbing all the knowledge I can from the boards for weeks...without commenting, but I got so excited to see someone with identical height and weight as me that I had to say hello!!!
