January 4th is my date! I love the idea if starting off a new year with this surgery to boost me into a brand new me! I will be 40 in a couple of years and I want to be in great shape by then. Also love the thought of having a few people to compare stories with as we recover and lose.

Jan. 17th is my date. I am excited, nervous, and scared! I have never flown.

Jan 17 2013 here in Puerto Vallarta MX by Dr. Lopez. So excited So anxious. Wish I were leaving today. So ready to start the New Year!!!! I think that is the first time I have felt that way in a long time!!!! I turn 40 in 2013 and plan on being HAPPY_HEALTHY_and_TERRIFIC in 2013. That is my New Years resolution. I think the sleeve will help with the healthy part. And I think the other will fall into place as some other changes are made in my life this year. Can't wait!!!! I am from Mississippi but am moving to Austin TX the week prior to surgery. Good luck sleever's on the up coming journey. Keep in touch!!! Can't wait to hear everyone's stories and experiences. Hopefully we can help each other through the process.

LizTex where are are having surgery and who is your doctor?

I live in the Corpus Christi area, but I will have my surgery done in Victoria by Dr. B.Dean McDaniel

Hi I'm going on jan 3 in TJ mx can't wait so excited. Already started my high Protein diet so I can shrink my liver by the time jan comes. I also started early so I can cheat on Xmas day a little. I take in about 70 grams if protein a day and 1000 calories. Not that hard. It's all I think about in a daily. I can't even focus at school because My mind keeps rushing back to surgery. Good luck to all out there. (Smiles)
