Surgery On July 25Th!

I just joined this board as I thought it would be nice to be able to chat with others my age that may face some of the same obstacles!

I got my surgery date today, I am getting my sleeve on July 25th!!!!!

Let me start out first by telling you all a little about me. I am Johnathan, I turned 27 on June 22nd. I have been overweight almost all my life. At age 10 I changed from lean and skinny active boy to the fat kid and life has been hell ever since!

I am looking so forward to having this surgery! This is my 2nd surgery in my adult life, first was gallbladder which was also laproscopic, so I am not all that worried about this surgery because the risks are low and other than High Cholesterol & Triglycerides (and being fat lol) I am fairly healthy.

I am on cloud 9 right now just dreaming of the day this surgery gets here! I have 28 days to go!

I can't wait for the new healthy me with no more high cholesterol or triglycerides. And I really can't wait to be able to fit into regular size clothes! A size 32 will be amazing! I really hope my skin cooperates and bounces back for the most part but I will definitely have a Tummy Tuck if not. I want to be able to walk around without a shirt on lol. I have never felt comfortable in my own skin and I am ready for my new life! I just can't wait! And I absolutely can't wait to have a love life again(i pretty much stopped when I didn't even want to see myself naked).

I would love to hear from you about your successes and experiences through this journey.

Good luck to you all!

Johnathan
