Hi all ! I'm being sleeved August 8th, 2012 by Dr Morris Washington in Myrtle Beach SC. Is there any other august sleevers on here?

I'm 27 (almost) ---about 100-130 to lose.

So we went grocery shopping today. I don't start my liquid diet until august 1st but I'm going to start low carb and gluten free now. I have had a bad skin allergy all of my life. Along with diarrhea and ibs. After ruling out several things over the years, not much left to cause it, so I'm gonna give gluten free a try! Another positive about getting the surgery! Times a ticken' August sleevers!!!

Hi everyone. My surgery is on August 7th at Forest Park Medical in Dallas, TX.

So we went grocery shopping today. I don't start my liquid diet until august 1st but I'm going to start low carb and gluten free now. I have had a bad skin allergy all of my life.

I have problems with diarrhea and IBS too, and like you, a cause wasn't found. I went almost gluten free, and it seems to have helped. Hopefully it will help you too!

I'm hoping it's the cause of these horrible itchy rashes too! Maybe I'm asking too much...

Good luck with your search. Have you tried laundry detergent for sensitive skin. My mom had to change soap, fabric softener, anything that touched her skin before she figured it out.

Use All free and clear, no fabric softener, dove sensitive...blah blah blah! My mom used to have to bathe me in phisoderm when I was little or it turned into infantigo. They don't make that anymore. So...yup, itches like a S.O.B!!

Add me to the list my surgery is aug. 23rd.

Hey everyone!

I am scheduled for Aug. 1 with Dr. Barker in Dallas, TX. I am 5'5" and weigh about 274. I want to lose at least 100 lbs., hopefully 120. I just had my first consult on June 29, have my stress test and nutrition consult on July 20 and surgery scheduled for Aug 1. I am really excited, but really scared too. I am a worrier by nature! I hope we all do great, and let's try to keep each other updated! So glad I found you

Add me to the list my surgery is aug. 23rd.
