Hey all' date=' I am a sleever living in Lawrence, approaching my 2 year surgiversary. I was sleeved in CA but have lived here for a year and would very much like the support of real people, much as I love the VST forum, having a diet/health/fitness buddy in real life can't be beat. Hit me up if any of you are interested![/quote']

Hi I live in Ottawa if you're interested. My email is Wilson.Tamara 31@yahoo.com

Congrats on your surgery date:) I has my sleeve 1/23 with Dr. Hamilton in the same office. It's a great practice! The pre op is the worst but trust me you can do it!! I know it's hard when you have a family to feed but doable.

I have my first appt with this practice on 3/4. What can I expect at my first appt? Do they schedule all your nutrition appts/psych eval/ everything at the first appt? So excited!

At your first appt you meet the doctor and he will answer any questions you and then you meet with a case manager who coordinates all you pre op stuff and she will give a work sheet of to do's prior to your surgery. The case manager helps you get though all the steps. All the staff is very helpful and nice:) I would recommend attending the support groups before surg if you can they are so helpful.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
