Fantastic! I hope Texas treats you right! It definitely won't be as cold as Maryland. Lol.

I am January 18th too! Dr. Alvarez.

Nune, if you don't mind me asking, what are your stats? I am currently 185lbs and I'm 5'2". I have to be in San Antonio on jan. 17th and surgery is on the 18th.

Do you have a FB I will add you and we can help each other in surgery day.

Waiting to have my date scheduled but I am thinking it will be mid-January. Having surgery at GBMC in Towson, Maryland.

Ok this is a challenge I will put to all of my fellow January Sleeve Buddies. Make a different New Year's resolution instead of just resolving to lose the weight. I'm not saying it's gonna be a piece of cake (poor choice of words?) But if we use this new tool correctly, the weight WILL come of! Yay! So I challenge each and every one of us to think of another area of our lives that might need a little attention and resolve to make it happen! I know that the less time and focus i have to give thought to all of the foods I'm not eating, the better. I know it's only November, and January is still a couple of months away, but i also know we are all chomping at the bit for the New Year and our new lives so lets just share some ideas for now

I am a new member here, and am looking for some people to go through this journey with also. I do not have my official surgery date either, but I am hoping beginning to mid-January. Excited to start the year off right!

I have set a goal to complete one 5k per month starting with a Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving Day. I plan to walk that one but will build on that to run future ones.
