I am getting sleeved tomorrow (11/21/2011). I just found this website and thought it would be helpful to join.

My heaviest weight was 390 lbs. Today (1 day before surgery) I am at 365 lbs. I am so ready to begin my journey. I am getting sleeved at Baton Rouge General Hospital by Dr. Frelich. I just went through the liquid diet phases ( 1 week of full liquid and 1 week of clear liquids), Those two weeks were probably the hardest two weeks of my life. I will keep everyone updated on my weight loss as I make the journey.

By the way, can anyone tell me how to get the weight loss and bmi counter that everyone has at the bottom of their posts.....Thanks so much!

Click on my counter and you can get your own. Congradulations on your surgery tomorrow!

Good luck!

Wow....very quick replies........thanks so much!

_{ok, just got my ticket..thanks for the help.}

Good Luck!!

I'm new here also.. My date is Dec 14th - Laura
