Hi everyone! I am so glad that you guys joined me in the thread. I am excited and nervous about my surgery... but mostly excited. The surgeon I am seeing only requires a three day liquid diet, but today I bought some Protein shakes and am going to start cutting way back on Monday so I am prepared for next Sunday when everything pretty much stops.

I also bought some lovely (eye roll) nightgowns at Walmart today for wearing at the hospital. You know, the fun kind your grandma used to wear that are like housecoats that snap up the front. I figure that will be the easiest as i won't have to deal with putting them on over my head.

Well anyway, I am looking forward to getting to know you all better as we start off on this journey at basically the same time. Great things are ahead!

Hi kbs1010. My surgery is march 9th. Next Friday. I too am looking for a friend to share with. Please let me know how you are feeling about all this. My surgery is at fort Lewis madigan Army Hopital in Washington state. They have tons of experience with this surgery so I pray I don't end up with complications. Never had surgerys or baby's so I don't know what to equate tis to. Good luck and if you like, I'll keep you posted.

It was meant to be. Where are you having your surgery? I actually live in Spokane. In order for my insurance to cover the sleeve, I have to have my surgery ar a military hospital. I'm still so excited to have someone so close.

      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?
