Hi! My name is Lisa. I just found and joined this site today. My surgery is scheduled for the 22nd. I'm so ready for this but I'm starting to get nervous. I have struggled with my weight for so long. I'm really hoping this surgery and lifestyle change will be the answer. Good luck to all of us!

It's official, August 5th!

I am August 13th!

August 15th for me.

August 29th for part 2 of my band to sleeve revision!

I read some similar recipes to this but instead if putting in one container, the OP suggested to cook in mini muffin pan, basically makes bite size quiches that are 2 oz each (I believe)
Love the ideas

Hi, I am having my surgery on August 1. I am in very excited but starting to get a little nervous at the same time.

Just wanted to say hi to all and it's so nice to see all of us that are ready for August.

My band to sleeve surgery is scheduled for August 1. Im nervous but excited to get heslthy and SKINNY.

Hey all scheduled for August 2nd in celebration Florida :-)

August 15th for me! I can't wait! I am actually having a hard time falling asleep at night because of my nerves and excitement.

Today marks the half way point in my weight loss journey. I should accomplish my goal by Christmas. Last week, my 12 year old son couldn't keep up with me while hiking. What seemed impossible almost five months ago is coming to fruition. Who would have thought! Talk about a new lease on life. I enjoy logging into this site
every Friday (after I weigh in) to read about everybody's journey. If misery loves company, so does success stories!

Sleeved 7/1, gained +9 lbs. of Fluid post-op. As of today, I've lost 6 of them. The scale is moving in the right direction!
Took a 20-minute walk to CVS to get my system moving along. Still very swollen internally, making it hard to get liquids in at a fast rate; but day 5 has been the best day as far as pain management and overall alertness/energy levels. I'm hoping it continues to improve daily.
Today I had my first bites of applesauce--I feel like I'm eating haute cuisine! Oooo la la!

I totally agree! Only my fiancé knows. I haven't shared it with any of my family, friends or coworkers. I don't need the negativity or judgmental behavior I have seen against others.

I officially switched to St V and already can see the pieces coming together. Omg, Shalanda with MMG is no joke!!!! LOL

Sending good vibes and prayers to Stacy03! Good luck with your surgery today!

Just got home from my 3 week postop checkup. I lost 25lbs since surgery on 6/11/13. Im so excited to move my ticker! LOL. And I can now start trying more solid foods! Yeah! Baking Tuscan seasoned salmon tonight!

Amen sister! I am sick of hiding from the 'evil' side of the camera. Looking so forward to jumping into a photo with friends and family rather than hiding from it.

I got my date...August 6th....so, I'm not going to be a July sleever after all. I'm going to have to go find the August group now Good luck to all of you July sleevers!!!
