@@redheadjo you are a courageous woman!!! Your doing what you feel is best for you and your family (in my opinion) healthier you = Better mother and wife. When my mom had her surgery done we all worried but I knew it would make her feel better and it did. Now 13 years later she's able to go bike riding with her grandkids out walking hiking and camping with us. She would never have been able to do that before she was out of breath just walking up the steps. Keep your faith and keep pushing! You GOT THIS!!!! I wish you the BEST! and I'll keep you in my prayers : )

Congratulations @dknal2 I'm so happy for you!!!

Congratulations : )

@ littlebill your too funny!!! Oh and I have to try the little spoon thing : ) I also think I''ll put my food on a smaller plate just to see if it helps me mentally. Great post!

I hope all of you Monday Sleevers are doing well today : )

welcome and congrats on your weight loss : )

I keep Teami Colon tea in the house it's the BEST!

Once you meet with the surgeon your suppose to stop smoking that's what I was told. I don't smoke but this was the advice from my surgeon.

Great question I told 3 co workers that's it at work. I was wondering what I'll say when I take off for 3 weeks : | But I really don't have to explain....

Please make sure you report her when you go to your appointment.... That's no way to treat a patient!

Good Luck : )

I don't have to lose any weight I'm just not allowed to gain weight.

Great progress : ) I wanna be like you when I get sleeved... lol

Congratulations!!!! You look Amazing : ) Guess someone's buying a new bathing suit this summer!

Wow!!! Look at you : ) Such a inspiration... Thanks for sharing!

Time waits for no one.... I'm 35 with 2 kids and I was going to get this surgery done years ago but I allowed people to talk me out of it! I totally regret that now years later I'm still over weight and larger then I was before... Listen... Come closer... Do What's BEST FOR YOU!!!! Your husband is not living in your skin and we only have one LIFE! Do what make you happy plus it will give you a better quality of life. I know you want to respect your husband and family's feeling or concerns... blah blah blah but do they care about you??? I had a scare with high blood pressure in September and my cousin was found dead in October no health issues she smoked used diet pills besides that she was fine. That pushed me to call my surgeon and get the ball rolling! She was 36 and has a 10 year old daughter... Life is to short we have to do what we feel is best, you know your body and how you feel. Make a way and make it happen!

lol I hear you loud and clear! On the bright side 2017 we all will be a fraction of our selves and feeling Great!!!! Yes I'm claiming it : )

Thanks Everyone : ) I don't now what I'll do with out my BP Pals... Seriously who wants to sit and listen to me vent about weight loss surgery. And @@BooBee66 your right I can practice good habits while waiting it will just make better results as of now I workout but I've been eating whatever I want.

All I see is ppl with surgery dates in this group while I'm here biting my nails playing the waiting game. I keep telling myself to relax but I'm tooo excited!!! I think I need to realize that a lot of you been working on this for months, I literally woke up one day called the doctor and scheduled a appointment last month.... I've wanted to do this for years but held off because of my parents and finally at the age of 35! I decided I have to do what's best for me. Now I'm sitting here like a groupie looking at before and after pics to see results. P.S. Take some pictures! Don't wait until you lose the weight take those good BYE Fat pics!!! I know I did

I hope I get a January Date Gosh I can't say it enough but I'll speak it into existence!
