Hi. I am having sleeve on 2/29. So technically I shouldn't be on this one yet... But have a question for the already sleeved. How do you deal with excess skin? I believe that my health is most definitely more important that my looks, but I must admit I am still concerned about it. Can some of you share your feelings/concerns? Thank you.

Hi. Just got my date yesterday. It's gonna be on "leap day"! I told my friend who already had it done and she says "how are you gonna celebrate your one year surgiversary?"

I will do my best to be there by 530. However I will warn you, I'm chronically late...

Laura! Don't go to work lol. Well if anything changes you know where I will be. Where are you with your program? N is it 3 month or 6 month?

Hi. I'm hoping to get surgery next month if all gets approved. One of the reasons why I want the surgery is I have fertility issues. I could never get pregnant. Were any of you ladies in the same boat? My biological clock is ticking and I need to make this happen soon.

Hi Carly!

Ok see you Thursday!

How will we know each other??? I'm Laura i would love to meet you. I usually sit in the back corner when you first come in. Ok. That sounds like a plan. The corner where the receptionist is or that little waiting area when you go in on the right?

I'm Laura too. Eerieeee lol

Hi Lancaster folks! I am planning on going to the group meeting next Thursday. Anyone else going and we can all sit together?

I'm in Lancaster county. I go to philly every week

If it's the one they sell on the shelf in the grocery store it's awful!!! I tried them last week...????

Wanted to see who all is here from pa?

I recently attended a seminar and my first consult is 10/30. My insurance covers 100% after a small deductible (yay!). The program is 3 months long. I feel very fortunate. But what I would like to know from everyone out there is how many of u have NEVER been a "normal" weight? I have been huge since I was about 5 years old. I don't even want to be "skinny". I want to be a normal average person whose size starts with a 1 instead of almost a 3. (That's what I consider average. Others may not... Not trying to offend anyone). I just don't know what it's like to be able to go shopping in a store at the mall and actually be able to buy something from there. I don't know what's it's like to look in the mirror and not want to scream. Or to not have to walk sideways down the airplane aisles while people give the "oh god please don't have the seat next to me" look. I love to read people's life stories and am enjoying this forum extremely. I just would like to know how everyone feels/is feeling as their sizes are changing and has anyone been at their healthiest they can remember in their lives? And I'm very sorry this is very long...
