@@toohot74akaelh2 The weight came off quickly but honestly very gradually- I would have weeks where I would lose nothing then randomly lose 6lbs but most of the time it was 2-3lbs weekly which is about what you're supposed to lose anyway regularly. I do work out a lot now (I didn't work out a lot during the losing phase though). I have sooo much energy to burn. I have an update pic I took with my doc on 5/5/15. He was amazed. He's so awesome. The before pic was day 2 postop on 10/9/13.

MrBroussard got a reaction from Ms. Babyboo in Nervous
How's it going pre and post op sleevers I've been on here for a while now lurking reading and getting information when I needed it. From what I have read I am one of the heaviest on this forum (at least from what I've seen ) so I decided to share with everyone so I decided to take this step a long time ago but couldn't afford it, then last year I was blessed with a full time job with insurance that would cover some it so I went to a seminar in Dec. Started had to jump through all the hoops. sleep study,nutrition visits ect. Finally may comes and everything is done they submit everything may 6 get a call may 7 I'm approved. So tomorrow i go and sign consent forms and I wanted to have my surgery in July when work slows down so I get a call today and now along with signing consent forms tomorrow I also start my pre op diet for surgery on Monday.....S#$! JUST got real lol
So I guess I'll ask are the any may 18 sleevers???

Congratulations! You have made a decision that will greatly improve your quality of life in many ways. Although the pre-op diet is inconvenient and uncomfortable, it is a right of passage. The new you is on the other side. We call it "the losers bench."
I encourage you to follow the plan that your bariatric team presents to you. It's hard, and sometimes we slip, but you will find encouragement here. Since you have been lurking around, you probably already know that opinions and tact will vary. I wish you good luck and good health.
