Good luck! I'm Sure you'll do great!

Good luck on a new adventure, a new life and a new you! Great way to spread your story!

Keeping fingers crossed for you!! Besides September seems to be a fabulous month to be sleeved because I am getting sleeved in the 10th!!! Good luck to you and keep us posted!

My co worker who was just sleeved had lost 85% in 9 months

Good luck!! (Crossing fingers)

I'm being sleeved 9/10/14 after a year of supervision which was an insurance requirement.. Good luck!! And congratulations

Just got my surgery date!! 9-10-2014 I will be sleeved and let me tell you, it can NOT come soon enough.. I am tired of ALWAYS being the BIGGEST one in the room!! I am tired of being on 9 different pills twice a day and being so sick from the meds last year I was diagnosed with diabetes and depression set in big time. I was so angry at myself and so angry at the world.. I only exist in life I am not living.. Smaller, thinner family and friends with no health issues don't understand.. They don't get blown off by society or have a hard time finding clothes that fit. I don't go anywhere with friends nor do I attend family functions.. I know I shouldn't care what people think or say but when it's people you love and car about that are saying it, it hurts.. Just last night my younger sister and step day now mind you I am 40 and she's 15 said they couldn't help but think of Honey Boo Boo's mom June when they look at me.. I was mortified!! I am not sleeping myself because I think it will make me "prettier" I'm sleeping for my health.. I don't know why that's so hard to understand.. Needless to say my family isn't all for this sleeve and my friends just tray they are jealous .. Does anyone else deal with a crappy support system and how can I make my family and friends understand that I just want them to be happy that I will be healthier????

Yeah there has been vey few that I have told because of the negativity.. Glad I'm here

Thank you all sooo much I am extremely excited to be here! You all are so informative and so sweet to one another! I am lucky to have your support

Thank you! I needed to read this today.. Scheduled for the sleeve on 9-10-14 and fear is a big factor.. I kept going back and forth for 2 years.. You look AMAZING!! Not That you weren't beautiful BEFORE your surgery
