Have my date..July 9th, Dr B in Edmond

Finally got my surgery date! Wednesday, June 5th in Norman with Dr. Ronnie Keith. Eeeekkk!!!! Now I'm nervous!

My psych said the main reasons for failing someone for the psych evaluation are past drug addictions(like not enough clean and sober time...need 5 years), severe depression without support. You seem very in tune with yourself and past experience. I would def look into other programs near you if you are really having trouble with current psych.

I am also having surgery pre-baby. I am 36...would never even consider getting pregnant this obese...so if somehow close to 40 I have a child great...if not at least I can really enjoy my childfree life hopping on a plane without the stress, and sit on a beach somewhere! It will be interesting to watch the responses..thanks for asking this. I plan on trying about a year after I hit a good weight...I fell better about having a baby and being older than I do about being knocked-up and obese and high risk!!

I'm upset in comparing these before and after pics. The left one is day before surgery and the right is today. My husband made me feel bad. He said he didn't see much of a difference. I haven't been on the scale since 1 week post op. My surgery date was 2-19-2013. At that time I had lost 19 lbs. Do you see a loss or change?

I totally see it....you are real close to the boobs comin into the room before the rest of ya...lol...you are def smaller all around!!!

Hello all!

I live in okc. 27 F. heaviest weight 329 lbs' date=' surgery weight 282 lbs. Was sleeved this morning (10/23/12) with Dr. Broussard in Edmond. Love the entire program, surgeon, etc. So happy I did it & it's finally over with. Best decision I've made for myself-maybe ever. Good luck to all & I'll be happy to answer any questions.

Also...since we are all in OK area....I'd love to have a clothes trade or sell etc as we are all starting at different sizes. Let me know if anyone is interested.

I am using Broussard also in a couple months

Drs make money off of any retail they have....there are options besides optifast..if he is requiring it then it is about the money or just making it easy to not have to approve everyones shake of choice. Blend it with ice and add a tsp of fat free sugaer free Jello powder will make it yum
