Hi!! My surgery date is Sept 8 th!!
I'm so excited to get this going- I've been looking into, reading and watching you tube sleeve stories for 18 months!!

Hi, my surgery will be September 3rd, I'm in Boston. Ive been waiting awhile for this - was approved in May but waited because I was traveling over the summer - but I am getting more and more afraid as the date is getting closer. I'm not afraid of the actual surgery (although that will probably come too) but of the hair loss, loose skin, and the fact that it is irreversible. I go back and forth between having these fears and also being so excited for a new start in life. Would love to be buddies as we go through all this together, and good luck to all of you!!

I'm a September sleever. First time posting here, but I've been reading. September 8th is my date. Nervous and excited. Mostly want my surgical recovery to go smoothly. Nervous about my 2 week liquid diet before hand.

Sorry for the crosspost in the success stories board also, but I wanted to post this here to encourage anyone just starting this journey. It's totally do-able, and if I can do it, believe me when I say, anyone can do it!!!
So yesterday I reached my goal weight, losing 134 pounds in 10.5 months. I made a flipogram with all of my monthly progress pics to illustrate my journey to this point. It was pretty awesome to see and actually made both my husband and myself cry. It's been a LOT of work and I've grown tremendously in strength both inside and out on this journey.


Ok, so I can't figure out how to embed it, so here is the link to the flipogram!
