My date is Oct. 29 the closer it gets the more anxiety I feel happy and sad at the same time.

Starting weight: 230 Goal weight: 115 Challenge goal weight: 200 Current weight as of today: 225 I'm being a little aggressive I have my surgery on Oct 29 and pre op diet should give me that extra kick in the butt!!!

Count me in! I just missed the Labor Day one this came just in time thanks for creator for taking time to do this!

Yes she saw me within a week of my call which was awesome

I used Dr. Barbara A. Etheridge, MD Family Practice Physician • Somerset 81 Veronica Ave #202, Somerset, NJ 08873 (732) 246-0057 I used was looking also because my pcp who at a bmi of 45 and up never realized my problem was the weight for five years I've looked finally my insurance recommended this doctor based on her reviews and the connection with hospitals I use she did a medical history in 15 minutes better than anyone I've ever had I though if use her only for surgery clearance and follow up but after being there once I'm sticking with her for good. I also loved the staff everyone is super friendly and not fake they tell you like it is they don't sugar coat stuff for you. I hope this helps. She is in central jersey I hope it's not a bad drive

Hello My surgery is Oct 29 2014 and I can really use a diet buddy I have support from my coworkers which is awesome but sharing tips , ideas and recipes would be nice

Thanks same to you What doctor are you using if it's ok to know I'm seeing Dr. Sadek he's been doing bariatrics for a while and has the best credentials I have found in this area he's affiliated with Robert wood Johnson hospital which is a plus for me. But will definitely change if I find someone better lol

Also on another note I thank you for this a little TMI .I'm barely starting my journey and this is the stuff that will make it all that easier to know what to expect and not be worried when it happens. This is what this place was created for and I thank the creators deeply as I have gotten so much from here from insurance questions to what to expect before during and after. Thanks one again and that's for the reply as well. Much luck to you both!!!
