Anyone Sleeved 4/23/11?

[NewLifeNow 2]

My date is next Monday, 4/23, moved up from the 30th. I'd love to hear from someone who's a year out, what went well, what hasn't, what you would change if you could go back (other than not gain the weight in the first place, LOL). I'm so impressed with the stories everyone has and hope I have as much courage and dedication to it as you all seem to. Wish me luck!!!

First I thought the subject date was a typo, but then read your post - cool idea to get someone a year out on same date....anyway, I'm not that, but I am having surgery the same day as you 4/23! Yippeee - one more week to go. Are you excited? nervous? I'm all of it. Did you have to do a preop diet?

Hi New Life! I was sleeved last year on 4/13/11, is that close enough??? My starting stats seem similar to yours. I went from weighing 210.5 at the start and now I weigh 143.5, a size 18 to 8 in less than a year.

I just posted my journey and results on my anniversary, feel free to go back and read it. In a nutshell, I am over the moon at my results. Have met and exceeded my hopes and if I had any expectations, the surgery has exceeded them all. I am pretty up front about the pros and cons of the surgery and what you give up in return for the results. I wish you the best of luck on your new life, it's a journey and one worth taking.

Feel free to contact me anytime, I have been there! Wendy
