I have to agree somewhat that it depends on the individual. Beauty as we all know is skin deep. Ladies such as myself go 100% on heart... I personally think Kevin James is one of the sexiest guys in hollywood - its probably his sense of humor that gets me.
You are TOTALLY cute...and straight forward no less. Dont worry, you will find her.

But it DOESNT HURT!! Crap, now Im on the Horndog team!! Lol

It's a little bit hard to type on my mobile phone...But I want to at least say that everything at this hospital is top notch. If anyone is considering different surgeons... I can only speak for this one; but everything was absolutely phenomenal...the Staff, the doctors the facility... everything A+++ I will write a full review of my experience when I am home on Monday.

I'm schedule for my vsg with Dr Rodriguez at star medica in Juarez Mexico on July 12th the nerves are kicking in, but overall feel very confident about my choice, have only find good comments and experiences about the surgeon and his team, anybody knows how many surgeries he has schedule a day?

Thanks everyone for your encouragement. I just wish family and co-workers would quit asking me how much weight I have lost every time I see them. I think this is why I feel so obsessed with the scale and my weight loss.

I am almost 4 weeks post op now..and feeling great. I am over the hump I think...sometimes I wonder if they did anything (if not for the fact that I can only eat tiny amounts)..because I haven't thrown up once, only been nauseated once or twice..and am eating darn near everything (with common sense)...I eat grilled chicken breast, grilled veggies, rice, potatoes, Jello, pudding, eggs, cheese, ice cream, heck..even had some pizza toppings (no crust)..I seem to tolerate everything..but the key is that I eat very small amounts..and I chew it well..takes about an hour to finish about a cup of food. I am getting in around 70gms of Protein with only one supplemental shake...taking in an average of 600 calories a day..have lost 28lbs thus far and am fitting in to clothes I havent' worn since before getting pregnant..and now that I can actually eat some stuff, the social part of this isn't so bad either. We went to Red Lobster on Memorial Day and I ordered the kids garlic grilled shrimp meal with veggies...ate about 75% of it...and felt very happy. Those first couple of weeks just really suck...hope all you other May sleevers are doing well!

I am only three hours from my surgery. The hospital is great, the staff warm, but I still had a sleepless night last night and am dreading the first hours post-op. I had the tiniest bit of ambivalence last night, then took a picture of myself and knew that I was doing the right thing. Wish me luck!

all the best to the newly joined May sleevers...the surgery itself went better than I expected, and I am thankful most of my issues post-op last week were emotional and not physical...thoughts and prayers are with you all!

I'm going into surgery in about 20 min...totally freaked out and just trying not to think about it. Had the band 2008, removed in 2011. My weight is 217, bmi 36. One thing I didn't have to do was a pre-op diet which was really nice as that would have been just one more thing to worry about. Hopefully I'll be back on here tomorrow saying everything went great! Good luck!

I am getting sleeved on May 3..I am doing the pre-op diet currently..I have lost 8.5lbs in 9 days...starting liquid only on Friday...I am ready..

My surgery was just scheduled for May 21 in TJ at INT with Dr Rodriguez. I am 300 and very ready for this. I am having the problem of being obsessed with food because I am anticipating the pre-op diet. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to deal with this??

Here's a list! If you're not on the list, just copy/paste it in your reply and add yourself! I'm scheduled for May 14th! Maybe we can each check in after our surgery.

May Sleever!! Dr. Rod in Juarez MX on May 10.
Heaviest Weight 296
Current Weight 270
Goal weight 140-150?
My mini goals....
I dieted down to 256 in 2007 when I temporarily seperated from my no good husband... so I would love to see that in May!!
I was 240 when I married the SOB so that goal and will take me back to 2004.
I was 205 when I meet the SOB , so that goal will take me back to 2002.
(Do you see the trend of undoing some mistakes here???)
I havent been to ONEderland for 20 years... super excited about hitting that goal!
And at the end of it, I should weigh the same as I did when I was 15 years old, and met the darling man I am with today - who loves me thick or thin. :wub:
Hey Beth is your cover photo on Facebook tropical drinks? I could only find one.. hoping it is you?
P.S. Im in Ontario Canada, and I will blog here a couple times a month so those that are interested in my journey and my incredible wit can follow along!

SO I met with my surgeon, and it looks like if all goes well, I will be getting my date in late August or early Sept. I meet with my nut in Early June.. and have to have 3 appts with her(maybe less if she feels that I am OK) and 1 psych appt. Which is scheduled in the next few weeks. And then we will put it to the insurance company. I was told I had to be full liquids for 2 weeks prior to surgery. I am so excited.. He says that I am a great candidate for the sleeve, and he thinks I will do well! Whoo Hoo!!
