Hello Everyone!

I am so excited to say that my surgery is scheduled for Tuesday morning!!! I am excited and nervous all at the same time. My mom got hers done on the 9th of September, and she is doing great. I am so incredibly proud of her.

I can truly say that this liquid diet has been hell. Watching all of my friends chowing down at my apartment has been a nightmare. Haha.

I just had a question for those of you who are already sleeved out there. I am 19 years old, weigh 260 right now, and I am 5'8. How is the extra skin factor? I know your skin has more elasticity when you're younger but I am just worried I will have a ton of extra skin and I kind of don't want that.

So, if you are around the same weight, height, or age as me I would appreciate your input.

Thanks, and good luck to all on their journey!

Lily, I just wanted to wish you luck on your surgery. I have a surgery date of Tuesday as well and I am right there with you with regard to the liquid diet :cry_smile: ... although admittedly, I cheated a few times.

Not that I know for sure, but exercise coupled with you being so young, I don't think you'll have a problem with excess skin. (Just my opinion).

All the best to you,

Niki

Best wishes on your surgery!
