Hey guys! I'm doing so good! I was sleeved on oct.3 I would say the first 3 days are rough but today I actually went to the mall & went shopping for about 2 hours. Now my back was hurting pretty bad but my stomach doesn't. I even took a bath last night & tonight. Just Water right under my belly button but it felt so nice! Wasn't hard to get out either... There is no pain or discomfort in my stomach anymore. Protein is so hard getting in! Water isn't that bad. Any advice on protein? Or things to eat?

I made it! Went walking like 4 times. No nausea :)some gas pains

My scarring is very minimal although I do look like I have two belly buttons now from the incision where they did the removal. I think it is just because I already had some hanging skin in that area after having two C-sections and losing about 20 pounds before surgery. I know other people who have scars that are different than mine, same surgery, same surgeon. The scars are the least of my worries, that being said, I have had several surgeries and have many scars. I do battle with my self esteem and the sagging skin, however, all the time! It is still worth it though, every bit of it!! I figure I didn't look good at 265 pounds when I was naked. I don't look good at 145 pounds naked either but I look DAMN good in my clothes now. I'll take that trade off any day! Who's with me?

Oh my I just signed my consents and am having my lab done tomorrow! It's so real!!! October 3rd (new life) here I come! I do not a liquid diet thank goodness just keep a low fat diet until next week. I really can't believe it

I'm getting so excited!!! Oct 3rd can't get here soon enough. I'm not nervous about the surgery I'm just scared of loosing my hair! I am a hairstylist and it just worries me...I know in the end it will be so worth it:)

My surgery date is Oct 3rd! I'm from west Monroe Louisiana
