  4. I have to thank you for sharing your story. I can't tell you how much this has helped me. I am getting sleeved on the 14th and reading your journey has helped tremendously. Keep up the good work. Congratulations????????????????
  5. My surgery is Jan 14th. I feel exactly the same way. Especially since I have been off food for nine days now doing the protein shakes. I want to eat food so badly. I keep second guessing myself if I am making the right decision. Maybe I didn't try hard enough dieting. I'm frightened for the change but I am over 50 and the weight just doesn't come off. I have dieted my whole life. With all that I have read on here, majority of the people have no regrets. I am praying I am making the right decision. I just don't want to fight this battle anymore. I am sure you will do well. Hang in there and good luck!
  6. Hi Guys! I am being sleeved on Jan 14th. I am really getting nervous. For all that have had the procedure done, was it worth it? Any regrets?
  7. Wow thanks so much for sharing your story. My surgery is Jan 14th. I am having the same exact thoughts you had prior to ur surgery. I'm on my third day of shakes. Im getting really nervous about the surgery. How are you feeling now? Any regrets?

  16. I am getting sleeved in NJ on Jan 14th. Starting protein shakes Dec 30. Getting very nervous.
  17. Where would I purchase the protein drinks, as well as the injury protein powder, and the protein soups?
  18. Hey Amy!! Good for you. It's awesome to be taking control of our lives. I'm 5'6" 240 lbs. it took a long time for me to make this decision. I think it is the right one for me. As my surgery gets closer I'm just getting nervous. I start my 14 day liquid Dec 30th. Hopefully that will go well and give me a jump start on my weight loss. I have also started going to the gym. That should help too. Good luck to you!
  19. Hi I am new to this site too. My surgery is scheduled for Jan 14th. I was wondering how to tell people too. I am a very private person. My family and a few close friends know. That's all. I don't know what to tell people when I start losing weight. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
  20. Hi ladies! I'm would like to be part of your support. I'm scheduled to have my surgery ion Jan 14th. I live in NJ. I start my pre-op diet on Dec 30th. I'm excited and nervous at the same time.
