Been trying all different shakes for months too notforthefaint. Also thought it would be preparing me for surgery.I know, just really anxious. Can't wait to start my journey to a better quality of life. Already made lits of changes to prepare. Everyone in our group has dates and I'm so glad for them. But makes me want mine badly too. ????Great news all around. Still waiting for my date. Very nerve wracking. Won't seem real until then. Trying to keep my spirits up abt it tho.I am from Catlettsburg, ky. Near Ashland. Biggest near town which isn't really big at all. LolWow!! Lots of September sleevers! Just think this time next year we will all be at or near our goal weight! Glad to be a part of this group!Seems like it is getting more real. My husband actually wanted to do another vacation next month and I had to laugh. Gonna be a very busy month after the 9th for me getting prepared. I don't think he realizes. Wish I had someone here to pair up with too. Tried reaching out today at Drs office, but no one acted interested. Think I will try at the meeting. Thanks so very very much to our September Sleeves! Don't know what I would do without you all!Isn't it wonderful how many of us have come together because of this? I feel a real close network building here. My daughter is 25 and sees how we have come together and thinks it's great too! Only thing that would make us complete is meeting in one place at the same time. Wouldn't that be a goal for next year?Great news thelakeisgone!Not for the faint, how many are September sleevers?Moni5855, me either nut I'm gonna be pushing it too. Last but appt is Sept 9th and they submit then. Dr said my insurance responds within the week but we'll see. They schedule my pre op the day of my last nut visit. So just gonna barely squeek byGood luck shrinking_Sarah!They only do a nicotine test I've been reading. And so far I haven't had that. Cause I quit smoking memorial day. Last appt. September 9th for me. Already seen surgeon twice.The masks alone would keep me awakeDidn't need either. But had endoscopy.My office is the same.We're all here for each other as much as we can without being together in personOur sight just keeps growing and growing. Welcome!! ????For the past 6|7 years since I've had this weight I never like pics of me. But can't wait to actually like the way I look again. Crazy thing is inside I still feel like the thin girl I always was before all my back surgeries. And honestly by doing the new exercises daily my back and legs are already getting so much stronger I don't always need my cane already. So I'm confident that the more I do, and lose the weight that I won't need it at all which is my second goal. ☺Yay!! Go girl go!! ☺Just read an article that smoking marijuana heals broken bones. How's that for medicinal?
