Wow... incredible transformations! I am on my way to hospital for my sleeve as we speak! Nervous as hell, no turning back now! Can’t wait to see what this journey brings my way!

Mine is tomorrow 😬 feeling nervous as hell and excited all at once!

I don’t think they retest you. They didn’t test me. I quit shortly before surgery. All will be fine. Feel free to ask me whatever you want.

Pure Protein chocolate Peanut Butter is the one I eat most often, it's really tasty. I LOVE Power Crunch Triple Chocolate but they have a lot more sugar and less protein, so I treat them like dessert and have them very rarely.

I like Pure Protein chocolate deluxe.

Mine is tomorrow 😬 feeling nervous as hell and excited all at once!

I’m at the hospital now. My RNY is at 7:30 this morning. I’m ready to get this done and start my journey.

Goodluck to you 17thers, and 25ers!! I'm 2wks post OP tomorrow an it is going well. Painful still at times but the goal is worth it!! How are u@romanoloser?

~Bing~

Hi, I just thought it would be cool to have others in the same month! It’s all good :)

I don’t plan to take off but a few days for work. I can just not lift heavy stuff. I am anxious for my time to get here!

Susie, I hope you get it for April! Keep me updated if you can. I’ll give an update, as well!

My surgery is April 25. So many emotions you g on in my head.

Thank you for your support.
My hemoglobin level went down to 7.9 on my second blood draw of the day, so I am having to stay another night in the hospital. I am no longer vomiting blood or having bloody diarrhea, so that is good news. My period started out of the blue (my period just ended a few days before surgery). Right now that is the only blood loss I’m experiencing.
If my hemoglobin count is better in the morning, I will get to go home. If it goes below 7 I will have to have a blood transfusion. Please pray that my level goes up.
As far as the bypass, I have no pain and am on no pain medication at all. It is easy to keep up with the Water and Protein Shakes as long as I keep on top of it.
Thank you again for your support. I know this is just a small hiccup in my journey and I will be very happy that I went through this.

Hey everybody!
I wanted to post in celebration of hitting my weight loss goal just shy of my 6 month mark (5 months and 26 days). I am now 175lbs!
I was as thin as a rail in high school and weighed 155 consistently all 4 years. I never thought I'd be this close to my high school weight so quickly. My new goal (which I never thought was possible) is to hit 155 and be done, for my height, I don't want to weigh any less and I don't want to lose my curves.
It can be done. Use this tool to change your life and your health!
Don't get discouraged or beat yourself up. You can do it. If I can do it, you can do it!!!! I work from home and have led a very sedentary life, just walking and taking the stairs instead of an elevator, parking far across the parking lot at Target...it all adds up and helps!
I went from 3-4x Top and bottoms (size 24) to an XL top and L bottoms (size 12) and bra size 42F to 36DDD.
I hope if anyone reading this and feels discouraged or has any questions, you can reach out to me and I'm happy to help in any way I can...even if it's just talking it out.
I wish everyone nothing but the best and hope you're all happy and healthy!!!

Yes me too! Hey surgery twinzie! Feel better soon!

Hi everyone!!! I had my surgery yesterday and was discharged this afternoon. Lapband is what I have.

I'm an April sleever!! April 1st!! Dr. Illan is my surgeon, also.
