Onmica...I don't have a date of yet...June 7th I have to see a pulmonary doctor and then be cleared by him...I'm hoping to have my RNY later in June but I'm looking to July so I don't get disappointed again...I thought I would go in May but then they wanted me to see pulmonary doctor to check my chest xray...scar tissue on lung...just to be sure so insurance don't red flag me. I was concerned because I was a smoker so I figure that's what caused it but I've been smoke free for 3 years on June 22nd! Would be nice to have that date for wls. You guys have a wonderful group...wishing I would have had surgery in May! Sent from my SM-G730V using the BariatricPal App

You look amazing and younger!! Congrats! I can't wait for surgery...I keep thinking "Wow what will I look like a year from now? " Sent from my SM-G730V using the BariatricPal App

I don't know how old you are but us older folks (for the most part) could give two s***s what other ppl think!! You did this to be healthy and keep doing it for you!! Stay on track...natural weight losers probably don't even understand wls let alone all the hard work that goes into it. They feel it's an easy way out!! It's not!! Keep going and prove to yourself how better off you will be!! Sent from my SM-G730V using the BariatricPal App
