Goal Weight
First and foremost, I set my goal so that it would be a "normal" bmi. Then I let my body decide where it naturally wanted to be. Also, I feel that if I lost anymore weight, I'd look sickly.

Anyone from Minnesota
Fawnb27, that sounds just like me. I was sleeved by Dr. Svendson in October 2013 and live in the north metro. Would be great to have someone to talk to and compare notes.

Your Big Goal Celebration
I'd like to get a new tattoo but I don't want to do that until I get skin surgery. Don't think the skin surgery is going to happen until at least a year out if at all. Guess I need to make a choice soon.

When people ask, do you tell them about WLS?
I tell people diet, exercise and surgery because for me it truly was a combination of the three.

WLS Medical Alert Bracelet
I just ordered one from Lauren's Hope also. I have a drug allergy and that with the sleeve probably warrants having one. Plus if I'm at the gym or out walking and something happens to me, I can be identified.

How many didnt follow the pre opt diet BE HONEST
I followed my 10 day liquid pre-op diet exactly. It was hard but I figured if I couldn't do it before, how could I do it after. Plus, it gave me a huge sense of accomplishment and for once, I controlled my eating, not the other way around.

This only things I miss slightly are my boobs and having enough padding on my bottom so that it's not uncomfortable sitting on my bony butt.
