I am brand new, joined about two minutes ago... I haven't had the procedure yet but I'm schedule for July 30 2015. WOW!

Welcome !! Good luck on your Journey

Hello, I'm having surgery on 7/22. I am in northern jersey, Bergen county! And I am right there with you when u say u have family who say you don't need or shouldn't do the surgery. I'd like to chat with anyone who would like to!
same date here!!! Congrats!!

Hello all!!!
My name is Thomas, or Tom or Tommy! I am 34 year young and currently live in North NJ (Bergen County). I am married for just over 5 years. I have been obese my entire life, and late last year I decided I wanted to take the steps to a better life and a healthier life. I am going to be having the gastric sleeve procedure done, on July 22nd (just found out my date this morning). I am extremely excited!! I have done WW in the past, other diet fads, nothing really worked or stuck. My first time I did WW as an adult was about 8 years ago and the reason I started was prerequisite for gastric bypass surgery (had a date, but did not have the surgery). I never had the surgery because I was doing so well on WW, I lost almost 100lbs in less than a calendar year, and then life happened and food was there and I gained it all back and then some!! SO NO MORE!!!! I know food will always be there, and life will too, but this will help me to deter myself from food!!! Plus, I am hoping it gives me more energy and motivation to get to the gym!!! My goal weight is 200lbs, but as long as I can get to 220, I will be happy!!!
Thank you all for taking the time to read part of my story (have to leave some mystery behind me), and I look forward to connecting with as many people as I can! Cause I have tons of questions!!!

Hello all!
I still have about 6 weeks until surgery but I am trying to get a list together of Vitamins, Protein Shakes, and other foods so I'll be ready when I get home from the hospital (stage 1)
I am confused about the vitamins and Protein powder (not getting great answers from my nutritionist)
Any advise would be great!
