Is anyone else getting their sleeve on Jan. 3rd? Have been reading but haven't seen anyone with that date yet, always before or right after.

Anyone planning on getting sleeved Jan. 2013? Haven't seen anyone talking bout Jan yet. Looked at the monthy groups and it goes up to December 2012. I plan on getting sleeved Jan. 7th.

I completed my supervised diet in Nov., I'm now awaiting insurance approval which I am sure to be approved for because of all my health issues that will be solved with surgery....except my Graves Disease. I was hoping to have a January date...but I got Feb 1st. Only because I'm because I'm awaiting approval. So thats close enough to Jan....isn't it?

How are everyone's feet doing? I have to admit mine are getting cold.

I know the folks who discourage my surgery are doing so because they love me and worry something bad will happen. A nurse told my sister she wouldn't recommend it because "so many people gain the weight back."

Ugh. It is scary. But I really need to change this fat life.

My surgery date was changed from January 4 to January 25. A little bummed but still excited to be part of the January 2013 sleeve club!

My surgery is on the 8th. My feet aren't ice cubes yet, but they are definitely chilled. Nervous, nervous, nervous.

I know I'm doing the right thing, and I should be fine but I'm still scared.

Good luck to you!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
