  1. Hi guys. I was just wondering what people's experiences have been with their skin. Does it go back to normal at all? Does it just hang down? Is the problem just in the belly area? Thank you for sharing your experience
  2. Thank you! I was actually surprised how food based it was and not more of what's going on in your life why do you think you have this problem oriented.
  3. Yea I passed psych. Ktodd how did you do??
  4. On my way to my psych appt so nervous I don't want anyone to throw off my surgery date.
  5. Hi guys I'm sept 10 as well. I am a bag of mixed emotions. Excited. Anxious. Nervous. Etc. i kinda wish it was already done and my new life was here cause im pretty good at freaking myself out. is anyone Nervous that the rest of your stomach is gone permanently? Is there anything that can happen in the future that might need the rest of your stomach to be there?
  6. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with me! I am leaning more towards the sleeve at this point but just started my research on it today. Does the fact that it is permanent and they take 3/4 of your stomach out bother anyone? Also I am obviously in this position because I love my sweets and carbs. Has anyone had any issues sticking to the new plan?
  7. Hi guys. I am new here but I would like to ask how you chose the sleeve and what your experience has been? I had my first appointment with my surgeon today and the surgery is scheduled for sept 10. However, I went there thinking I was going to get the lap band and my Surgeon said he would do it but he would prefer the sleeve. Any information/advice you could give would be greatly appreciated! I look forward to hearing from you.
