Planning my sleeve for mid. December. So very excited, a few nerves, but mostly excited. I have told very few people in my life about this decision so any support I could get would be great.

I am with you on the nerves. I have shared this with everyone I come in contact on a regular basis. going to be hard to hide when you are on liquid diet at christmas. I have had nothing but support. I really was surprized at the reactions, I was thinking everyone would think me stupid etc. Actually I found out that a number of people I know have had some type of weightloss surgery. I was amazed. Now I can take my protien meal to Christmas dinner and not have any grief from anyone.

From what I've seen so far this forum has a lot of great people on it who will help you, encourage you, and support you every step of the way. Making the decision to tell others was a tough one for me and from what I've seen here, everyone seems to have different experiences with it. Most of those I've told have been supportive once I explained the health reasons behind it.

The message people seem to be the most receptive to has been: "I've got health issues that I just can't gamble on anymore with regular dieting. If I don't fix it now, and fix it permanently, I'm going to be in serious trouble. I decided I'm going to do whatever it takes to be successful in getting my health back."

I can also say that the more people I tell, the better I feel about it, but this is probably different for everyone.

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
