I'm new to this group and don't really know what I'm doing. I am scheduled for surgery May 29th and I am very excited. I am currently doing my pre-surgery diet. My weight today is 267 but my highest weight was 290. I am only 5 feet tall so I need to get this weight off. Being overweight has been a life long struggle for me. I look forward to being a better healthier version of me. If anyone wants to be friends or and support each other in this adventure I'm in. :-)

Welcome! I'm on day 6 of my 2 week preop diet. I'm just now getting to the point where I'm not miserable most of the day - I have my moments. And I've learned to appreciate chicken broth.

Thank you! I am very excited/anxious for surgery. Good luck with your recovery.

You will find many good folks here. Explore and enjoy!

I'm doing my best. I hope to meet some people to do this journey with.

I had my surgery may 6th and have lost 25 lbs since surgery. My starting weight was 228 now 203 im amazed at not having any hunger at all. Difficulty with knowing 4 spoons of food too much lol

surgery May 29th - very excited - look forward to being a better healthier version of me.

Welcome to the neighborhood newbie

we all have our different features - tall, short, loud or quiet

but.............our common denominator is our weight, past, present and future

we all have had our weight issues

we 99.9%/most of the times are very supportive, especially to nice people like you

"we've" walked in your shoes, sometimes tripping, but we tie our shoes and stand up again

ask away with all your questions!!!!

WLS one week from wednesday???

holy moly, stay calm - little nerves are perfectably understandable

take care

happy WLS

speedy recovery
