RSM

I understand, guess that I am a bit on a roller coaster here as this is really becoming a reality.

My date has yet to be determined, but should be decided in the next 2 weeks. The insurance is a go, med consults are about done so my sleeve will be done shortly after yours, would be glad to support you. I could use it as well.

Sure, the mental hump comment was meant as getting bast the barrier of the necessary psychological thoughts to be successful in my new journey in life. I appreciate your words and they are a good reflection of your success and do help me quite a bit in working towards my own.

I don't have a surgery date as of yet, but should within the next 2 weeks. It has been a very long wait so far but will (hopefully) be worth it. The actual surgery does not bother me, what does bother me is the hunger strike I will endure 2 weeks pre-op and then forever. Like all overweight people, I love to eat, which is why I am so overweight. Time to control it,,,,does anyone have any comments on getting over the mental hump of changing my lifestyle forever? I should be past this point by now and looking forward to new adventures.

Yes, you are hot! Congrats

Sams club is cheaper

You are definitely going to be put through a tough test. I have a Bday Aug 4, and am trying to be good before my 2 week pre-op starts,,,haven't scheduled mine yet but very close. GOOD LUCK!

I am going to be sleeved in Aug. Received all of my clearances so far including Insurance which is VA, just 1 more to go (Cardio, and have been told they support it) and then it is about time for pre-op, which is going to be hard for me. Kinda need some support or feedback on the pre-op and of course the post op most importantly.

Will be a sleeve buddy too

In Pre Op stage. Will be getting sleeved August hopefully, not sure yet. I have Dr. Fearing at Menorah Med Ctr in Overland Park doing her work on me.

Ditto on your feelings and emotions. I will be starting my 2 week pre-op liquid diet soon. It is starting to become a reality of the life changes I will have to endure to make my journey successful, and need some advice or sharing words to make this easier. Will check in with you daily if I can.
