Brand new here! :) I am going with Dr. Illan on the 13th of March! I am an RN in northern MN, looking forward to some warmer weather!! My sister is going with me, I am a little nervous to leave 4 kiddos back home with the hubby, I will miss them. It is my spring break from my bachelor's program, so good timing. Hope it all goes as smoothly as possible! My friend Jen is a consultant for Dr. Illan, and has sent 9 others besides herself to him from up here in MN and they have had amazing results!!! I am so excited to be flying out in (gulp) 11 days!!!

Valleriek, I am also a nurse and I'm being sleeved by Dr. Illan on March 11th. Our paths will hopefully cross while we are there. Good luck!

So exciting to see the March surgeries happen as that means mine is right around the corner. I see a few of Dr Illan patients here and just wanted to let you know we have a support group for his patients called Team Illan. Great group of people! I can't wait to hear everyone's updates 4/4 can't come soon enough!

Hi everyone. I'm here at Mi hospital waiting. And waiting. Going to go f'ing nuts. We got here at 7:30am and it's almost 1 and I want to pull my hair out. Nobody can tell me when I'm going. Had bloods and EKG, met everyone, in my room in the gown and compression socks on STARVING. Lol. Fuck me.

      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!!
