I am also afraid of surgery but I'm more afraid of what will happen to me if I don't do this. I have been under anesthesia before a few times and I handled it just fine. I will just pray and be positive. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi. Today is day 1 of my 10 day liquid sleeve pre-op diet. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have told everyone. I don't want any other person struggling with weight thinking I simply changed my diet and started exercising. I have no issue with people knowing "my business". Probably because I'm not the type to care or be influenced by what others think/say.

Oh wow Bridget that's tomorrow!!!! Good luck and Congrats!

Thanks!!!

Hi I am in Philly/South Jersey and I will be sleeved soon by Dr. Schuricht at Pennsylvania Hospital. Has anyone heard of him? Has anyone scheduled with him?
