While, I'm not from Minnesota, I live right next door in North Dakota! Congrats on your surgery and welcome to the club. My doctor told me about the support group in my area, although it's via a Tele-presence. Maybe your doc can suggest one for you?

I'm on my 2 week low carb diet. I don't have to do a liquid diet before the surgery. But I've already lost 7lbs and my blood pressure is down. Cannot wait until Sept 3!

Thank goodness my date is Sept 3. Just found out I have high blood pressure & had to start on high cholesterol meds. If ever there was a need for this surgery it's now.

So happy to see this! I'm still Pre-Op, I start my 2 week diet on Thursday. Surgery is on Sept 3rd. Would love to have some fellowship with Christian Sleevers..

Just got my date today. Sept 3rd is the lucky day for my surgery! Start my pre-op diet on 8/20..Had a band removed 6 years ago and this will be very exciting to see how different this is from that band. I was so miserable with my band. From what I've been reading the Sleeve sounds like a great fit for me. So proud of everyone on this journey to take their health seriously. Hooray!
