Hi there July 2013 Sleevers!

I got my new surgery date today and it's official! I'll be sleeved July 12th. I was originally scheduled for June 4th with a different clinic and surgeon but had a bad experience dealing with the staff at the clinic and felt too uneasy to continue with them.

So, we've now gotten a great surgeon with much more experienced and professional staff and treatment success. I'm thrilled and, while I was super bummed out to have to wait longer, at least it's not too long. I'm allowing myself to get excited again and it feels SO GOOD!

Best wishes and much success to my fellow July Sleevers!

I always say everything happens for a reason! I too had to switch surgeons in the middle of my journey. Very stressful and upsetting but now I'm happy about it . I ended up with a much better surgeon and hospital! I feel a lot better about it all and I have extra time to prepare myself !

So have any of you had folks in your immediate circle disagree with your decision on getting surgery? I'm dealing with a close girlfriend who turned into a detractor. It's saddening and I am avoiding giving her any info regarding details of the surgery. I just don't need the negativity right now. I am so glad that I found other women on this forum who are going to the same thing!

No one knows except my immediate family and best friend. I'm a stay at home mom so I don't have a job or co workers to explain it to. Everyone has been supportive

Fortunately I've been lucky to have most of the people I've told be very supportive however my in-laws have been very negative and are constantly cringing any time I bring it up. It's rough because they are some one who I need help from with my girls and I just don't see them being there. I just don't discuss it with them anymore

Ironically this person I am speaking of is one of my best friends! I have only told 4 folks. Two of which live with me and all are super supportive except her! She talks about how I could die. Mind you I told her I was only CONSIDERING it... not my final decision to do it. think its threat to her if I become thin as she remains plus sized. I don't want to lie and omit details but I am feeling like I may have to so I can remain positive. If she continues to obsess over it and continues to badger me I may have to be firm with her. This is something I want to avoid. :(

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
