  10. Thanks Patty! I did just read them all, I feel very bad for the one lady that totally regrets it..I have been fat my whole life, Im done! Im 42 and really haven't started living, Id give my left arm to be able to bend over to paint my toe nails or better yet, not break out in a sweat while walking. Im just finished with this nonsense and allowing food to control my life. I wish I would have found out about this ten years ago! Tuesday is the big day for me, I am scared but excited as well! Im ready to start the next journey

  14. Im going to be sleeved in a week from today, do you have any regrets about your Sleeve?
  15. Fantastic!!!! way to go ..what a huge accomplishment
  16. Thanks guys! Im going to miss the days of ordering appetizers, wine and eating a big meal but my rear end wont! hahahahhaaa
  17. I feel for you!!!! I was supposed to be sleeved a month ago so I went through all this already, I ended up with a migraine for 2 solid days and couldn't take a thing,..I felt awful and Im due to be sleeved 7-30, not looking forward to it again, Im praying this round goes smoothly. I am so sorry your dealing with this, the only thing that seemed to make me feel a little better was sleeping and drinking lots of water. I do hope you feel better and good luck to you!!
  18. Thanks so much guys! I think for me the hardest thing will be the appetizers and a cold beer..ugh...I will have to really retrain my brain to drink AFTER I eat, that part is so hard but I gotta do it. I am hoping to lose the whole "grazing" thing after surgery as I have a desk job and snack a LOT during the day..you guys have been so helpful, thank you!!!
  19. Hi guys, Im due to be sleeved 7-30, was supposed to be sleeve 6-25 but the lab messed up my blood work so more waiting..wahhh! I have 2 questions. 1. what do you order while dining out in a restaurant (not fast food)? we eat out a LOT and Im not sure how that's going to work. and #2. can you tell me what YOU eat in a day? whats your daily menu..thanks guys! this site is fantastic, wish I would have joined a year ago when I started this journey
