AaahRoo! I have a surgery date! I will be sleeved at last by Dr. Fernando Otero on August 14, 2012 at John Muir Hospital-Concord Campus CA. I'm very excited of course!! I'm hoping to find other August sleevers to treck the journey with. I'm so ready to get this weighted ball rolling you just don't know...

I've been putting on weight since the birth of my first child 20 years ago. Things really got out of hand when I seperated from the military in 2006. No limits,No mandatory runs,No mandatory weigh-ins makes Gr8rLuv a very big, bad girl !! Currently, I'm miserable...My joints-Achy wrists,back,hips,knees and ankles. sleep Apnea-I got it, Cpap-I wear it. I can't wait to get back to my normal...BMI,Weight, Activity,Sleep. I've lost enough time...I'm ready for the RESET button!!

Good Morning!! I hope everyone will have a great day!! Another day has come and passed, which brings us closer to our day of our life changing event!! I am so excited, I am absolutely buzzing about. I am now on day 4 of my liquid diet as of today. Almost a week has gone by, and I am proud as I have not done any cheating. In fact, I haven't had any cravings for items. I simply eat when I am hungry, protein shakes and soup, and the wonderful pureed baby food, 'yum'. lol Well not really yum, but it gets the job done. I hope everyone does well with their diets, and off to a new and better life. Just imagine, next year at this same time, we will be thinking back to now, and remembering all the things we went through, what we had achieved, gained and lost. It will be a surreal, and powerful moment in our lives. One to cherish and remember, now that is one massive achievement!!

August 29th here!!

I'm 3days post-op. Ahhh its sucks big time, if you've never had surgery cause surgery is an experience in its self. But its getting better for me, just take you time and don't feel bad cause your body just need to adjust.

I'm august 15th too !! Good luck to all of us on our journey to our NEW lifes !!

Hi August Sleevers! Just joined, my surgery date is August 16th! I am 9 days into my pre-op diet and the NO sugar headache is gone!! Sending well wishes and a speedy recovery to all.

Hello sleevers,

I have seen on some sites where many people have developed headaches. I myself never received them. Maybe it's because I never ate that much sugar? I just wanted to congratulate all those that have joined and welcome them to the group.

Happy Saturday to all
