I just met with my surgeon today, I was supposed to originally have my surgery dec. 30th buts since I have two blood clotting disorders they want to move it up to either the 2nd or the 9th.. My bday is the 11th. New year new beginnings can't wait! This is all pending my bosses approval of course

Hello all! I hope you'll have me as I just got my date today, 12/01/14!! I thought I would be in Nov but due to the holidays and my surgeon only doing surgery 2 days a week I was pushed into December. Not bad at all ????

I had the surgery back in June, but my daughters are both scheduled Dec 8th. We will be having shakes during the day and a small Protein (turkey) and salad plate for dinner. No way would I bring out a big spread when I know they can't eat that stuff. My hubby is on board too. He said he would go to the neighbors for his pumpkin pie! Christmas will be exactly the same as both will still be on a liquid diet. Next year during the holidays we will go to a warm beachy resort and food will again not be our focus... But for different reasons. We will be having too much fun romping in the ocean in our bikinis!!!!

@@jjinWA ..... That is so awesome that your success is spreading through your family. I am scheduled Dec 1st and I wish my brother, sister, and mother could follow me.

Crystalsleeve, thanks for the kind words. I will admit my oldest daughter has seen my success and decided to get on board and have the sleeve surgery also, but my youngest daughter and I had planned on doing this together from the very beginning when we started the preop testing, etc way back in Dec 2013. My insurance approved my surgery but her insurance denied her (twice). So I went through with the surgery in June and every time she and I went shopping for clothes it was always bittersweet. My dress sizes going down each time was a great feeling for me, but it still broke my heart because she was not on her own journey to ONEderland. She was happy for me and never let it show that it hurt her as well. So their surgeries in Dec 2014 will put them on the positive track of self confidence and self love. I cannot wait for all 3 of us to be on this journey together!

Good luck to all the December sleevers!!!! Having already had this surgery I can tell you it is the best thing I have ever done for myself!!!! I started out at 226, wearing size 16W pants and now, 4 months later, I weigh 172, and am wearing size 12 petite (even those are a bit big)! I never imagined I could get into that size and now I wonder if 8s are in my future. OMG!
