Hey I'm 22, married, No kids, from Va. I started my liquid diet today and I'm having surgery next Wednesday the 24th. I'm looking for some friends my age who are having theirs around the same time.

Having a Vena Cava Filter put in tomorrow morning which is kind of scary. I've lost 52 pounds on my pre op diet. My hw was 398 and my cw is 347. I'm 5'8.

Hey there!

I'm 22 also and wow I also live in VA. How did your surgery go yesterday? I will be having mine November 11th. I'm having a lot of trouble staying focused and have to lose 20lbs before November comes. What was your pre-diet like? Also if you don't mind me asking who is your surgeon? I'm doing mine through va bariatric with dr. Fitzer.

Hope to hear back from you!

Hey sorry for just getting back to you. The first two days were rough. Surgery went great. My surgeon is Scott Watson in Johnson City, TN.

I used weight watchers for the first 40 pounds, cut out all soda, anything with more than 10 grams of sugar per serving, low carb. Then i got stuck in a stall so i switched to 1200 calories a day, sugar free. For the last 20 pounds, home now and recovering well

That's awesome! I may try that for a few weeks. I just moved out on my own with my bf so I'm still adjusting and really bad about preparing meals etc. I'm glad your surgery went well.
