Hi everyone. I've been reading these boards for the last couple of days and decided to join.

I'm getting sleeved exactly in 15 days (May 27th). I'm nervous but excited all at once!!!

I'm 6'4 and currently 360lbs. My goal is to reach 220lbs. Hope to share some experiences here.

Welcome! You'll find lots of good info here & support from some great folks. I am planning for June, and like you I'm both nervous and excited. It will be tough, but I think I'm ready. Good luck to you!

The next couple of weeks will fly by for you! Good luck.

I go on Weds and am super excited!

Welcome to the board and good luck during pre-op and surgery. You will find the people and information on this board incredibly helpful during your journey.

Welcome you will not believe how easy it all is.

Welcome!!

I'm 2.5 years post-op and my surgeon has a mentoring program. I mentored a man who was 6' and 425 to start. He got down to 280 at about 9 months post-op. He's been stuck there for a while but his ultimate goal is 250.

I think you will do just fine!
