My weigh in on June 8th was 208.8. Sorry for the late post!

Kimberly7490, I am doing great! Everything has gone smooth so far, and my doctor is very pleased with my progress. How are you feeling?

I'm in! My current weight is 212 and my goal 191.

Praying for all of those who are being sleeved today. Stay positive and keep your focus on healing and losing weight. So thankful for our group of May sleevers...it's the best!

Hi Lisa, hope you are continuing to heal well and get stronger each day. How can I be added to the Facebook group?

Ms. Kay, what is your surgeon saying? I'm praying for you right now!!

How are you feeling now, Ms. Kay?

I was also sleeved on Wednesday and came home on Thursday early evening. I am feeling great...very sore like I've done a zillion crunches, but otherwise great. I had a hiatal hernia repair, lap band and port removed and the sleeve done. All with no pain meds...so thankful and happy that I did this!

Hello Fellow Sleevers! I'm praying for all of you who are being sleeved today. Your new life is beginning! We have so many May sleevers...it will be exciting to keep up with each other and support each other through all of the transitions. Mine is on Wednesday, May 6th.....so excited!!

That is so exciting! Congratulations!!

Lipstick Lady, I absolutely LOVE your Lessons from your Sleevilla!!!

Congrats to all of you that have gotten your surgery date! That is so exciting! It is nice to have this support group to share the journey. We can share our fears, our experiences and thoughts as we go along the journey. Matthew282, here in Delaware, we are required to be on the 2-week liquid diet for some reason. They say that the insurance companies are now requiring it. I am having a revision from band to sleeve. I was banded in 2008 and wasn't required to do any type of pre-surgery diet, so it's all new for me too. I start tomorrow. I'm sure I'll be on here looking for support!! =) We can do this! Here's to a healthier, more active life!

Hi Manuela, Are you having the lap band done or a revision? My surgery is on May 6th and I'm having a revision from the lap band to the gastric sleeve. I begin my 2 week liquid diet tomorrow. Nervous and excited all at the same time!

For those of you who have started the liquid diet, how are you doing? I start mine tomorrow and I'm very nervous! I go for final bloodwork today and then the 2 week journey to surgery begins!! Is anyone on the East Coast? I'm in Delaware.

Hello All! I have my surgery scheduled for May 6th and I start my pre-op Optifast diet this Wednesday. I am excited and nervous at the same time! So happy for all of you other May sleevers! We can do this!!
