I know there is an October group here somewhere but I thought I would start this off by introducing ourselves!

I'm 25 years old and from British Columbia, Canada. My surgery is set for October 2. My pre op ensure shake diet starts September 2 but I have started a week early for a head start I am

A nurse by profession and engaged but no kids. With my history of PCOS kids will come after I drop the weight. Starting weight: 280lbs Current Weight: 275 and losing everyday!!

2012 OctoSleevers

(updated: 154 members!!)

Susan 2.0 you are the best! Thanks for collating a list of the October surgeries. Best of luck to everyone!!

Hey everybody! I'm scheduled for a revision on October 3 with Dr. Chris Sanborn. I initially lost 75 pounds with the band, and started having problems and gained it all back plus some. I'm in my pre-op diet now, and yes I'm starving. lol I think it's interesting that every doctor is different with what they require on their pre-op diets.

I'm very excited for my revision that I can hardly contain myself. lol

Susan 2.0 you are the best! Thanks for collating a list of the October surgeries. Best of luck to everyone!!

No problem. It's my OCD at its best (or worst???) . Good luck everyone. Just 7 days & a wake-up for the first round of OctoSleevers!! This is really getting real!!!!!

It sure is getting real, peeps...im so glad we've got this big group of sleevers here. It really comforts me to know there are so many others doing, thinking, feeling, analyzing, the exact same crap as me!!! This site has been so helpful and informative during my process, and it'll be even more valuable as time moves forward... Good luck to all the OctoSleevers. Cheers (with a low carb protein drink, of course) to our new lives/journeys/experiences and victories, big and small.

My doctor called and asked if I'll be willing to move my date from October 16th to October 9th!!!! I said yes with the biggest smile on my face...

Susan, you dropped me off the list

And after I had added you to my wolfpack.....

10/25... only a month to go!

Susan' date=' you dropped me off the list

Ooooh noooooo! I had edited it on the site, but not on my original list I use to copy & paste. I'll double check everyone & re-post.

Thanks Susan! You really are going above and beyond. You're back in the wolfpack.

Funny thing was that not seeing my name on the list was like fulfilling a bad dream of my surgeon telling me my surgery will need to be cancelled or postponed indefinitely for some reason....

Hello Susan! Just an update, looks like my surgery is gonna be in November... sad I won't be an October sleever but very grateful to be a November sleever. Good luck everyone on your upcoming surgeries

Oh by the way I changed my display name.... it's tfazio, figured new name for a new start

Fantastic news!!!!!

I'm so glad! I thought for sure that after my doctors appointment that I would be stuck forever with this unhealthy body.... changed my meds and things are looking up. Seems that I have Hoshimoto's disease instead of just being hypothyroid.... made my white blood count high and sometimes makes your heart have palpitations.... anywho, so glad I'm back on track
