what's the revision for?

Helloooooo to aaaaaall, i seen activity hoppin in this thread and it seems like just yesterday i was in here gathering info and anticipating the day! April 25th will mark my one year sleeversary i will say to the newcomers...it's been the BEST decision of my life! dont compare ur journey to anyone elses. i expect to be another 10lbs down by April 25th to bring me to 190! I'm not rushing to get to 175 and the KEY is to eat right. i've had so many stalls n scales goin up n down becuz i was still in fat girl mentality. i still enjoy buffalo wings i just dnt eat 10 but 3 or 4 lol. pizza and marinara pretty much makes my stomach funny so i dnt eat that (alot) NO WHITE BREADS AT ALL or carbs for that matter. listen to ur body. once you get in the habit of eating better you'll realize that fried chicken wasn't so good after all. do i eat plants all day...of course not cuz im human lol. i can still eat whatever i want i'm just more mindful of it. I have a trainer in which i work out 2-3 times a week that's helped alot and it's truly a lifesyle change. im learning everyday to get better. congrats and good luck april sleevers!!! you'll look back in a year wondering dmn why didn't i do this sooner.

yes! I went alone (I went to mexico) and met 2 women getting it the same day as me!

congrats on makin the decision! best decision I ever made. you will also be able to meet people the day of ur surgery too!

OFFICIALLY ON THE LOSERS BENCH!!! everything in mexico went really well and totally dont regret the decision to travel to mexico. the process has also been easier than i imagined cuz of my new found sleeve sisters...heeeey mzjay

OOOOOOOOOOOOMG!!! its sooooooo hard. yesterday it wasnt AS bad cuz i was home n had soup, water n **smacks my hand** ice cream but i went to the store n got some broth's for when i get back after surgery n forgot to get sugar free popscicles!! DOH!! im at work today n i've only been drinking gatorade. its hard but im honestly NOT hungry. i dnt know if its from being anxious about this friday or what. the only thing thats making me THINK im hungry is commercials lol. im packed n ready to roll EEEK!!

im packing my bag tomorrow and packing as light as possible. gas x strips caftan socks/slippers draws toiletries phone charger kindle whatever i wear there im wearing on the way back!!

i'll be in mexico next friday too!! im using dr. q tho

CONGRATS EVERYONE!!! omg crazy how time is flying because i came on the thread around Feb/March and here i am...gettin ready to fly out NEXT FRIDAY!!! EEEEEK!!! im looking for all tips n tricks to prepare for next week...for those who did liquid diets what did u drink all day for the week?

I'm getting it done on 30! Are you staying at the Marriott? yup!! we will basically miss each other!!

EEEEEK!!! countdown begins this is my last week of food freedom YIKES!! im doing protein shakes next week and i work 12 hr nights so i'll do like a small salad or something. what do people normally do the week of surgery? my date is april 25th. if anyone has any suggestions on diets, what to bring and other helpful info i'd gladly appreciate it. email me: tmonagan@gmail.com

i took out $5k from my retirement as well and im using Dr. Q in Mexico! My insurance (kaiser) has too many other stipulations n hoops to get approved and since i dont have any complications other than just being fat i decided to research (over a year) and choose this route. my girl used the same dr last Nov so i went off a referral. The surgery cost me $4250 plus airfare
