Hello all. I'm new to the site looking to beef up my support system to keep me focused on my new way of life. My sleeve date is scheduled for 04/04/13. I'm beyond excited for so many reasons. I want to be as open and honest with myself and others about my journey so I can be successful in conquering the lifelong battle of the bulge. I love reading everyone's threads to learn more about what's to come. Looking forward to making friends.

Welcome! Good luck with your upcoming surgery!

Congratulations on your decision, and welcome!

Welcome and howdy from Texas! I'm new here too.

Thank you ladies. I'm so pumped. I know it's an entire lifestyle change and a commitment to be healthier but I'm ready. I've joined another online forum and I've learned so very much. The support and encouragement has been amazing. I feel like an idiot but I just can't stop thinking/talking about my surgery. The stories and pictures are so inspiring.

Thank you Don! I'm in dfw tx.

Welcome! I'm in Grand Prairie and my date with destiny is 6/10!!

HOORAY FOR TEXAS! Im in Waco! Welcome to the family. I am getting "sleeved" in June. Friend me if you like. There is also many of us on MyFitnessPal.com if you use that for tracking your info.

Forgive my ignorance but I'm using the iPhone app to this site. How do you "friend" someone. Also for all my fellow Texans, who are your surgeons?

I am on my iPad now, and I don't think you can add friends on the mobile apps. If we can, I havent figured it out either. :/. Once you get to a computer, click on a persons profil pic to go to their profile. In the top right will be an "Add as friend" button.

I am using Dr. Stowers with My Bariatric Solutions. I am so impressed with the care and attention from the first time you ever contact them. I highly recommend them!

Hi!! My date is 4/3 however I'm not from Texas but I'll be flying there as I'm having surgery in Mexico. I didn't know you could friend people as I've only used this via app on phone! I'm learning so much every time I get on here I love that! Good luck to you next week!

My date was 3/6. Dr Seger in San Antonio. Great doc!
