I finally got my date today! I will be getting my surgery on March 9th!!! I am so excited and 100 things are running through my head! Any advice from people who have already had the surgery? Any one else getting theirs done in March??

90 down

I'm down 130lbs since 3/25. I feel great. Still have around 40lbs to go. Goal is 145-150.

Thanks! I was a bridesmaid in my friend's wedding on 11/7.

Sleeved 03/24. Down 67 lbs and 13 lbs to my goal. Much slower now and I'm finding I am able to eat a little more than before so I have to really pay attention and make sure I use smaller plates etc.

Yea I ate a whole grilled chicken sandwich the other day. Surprised me. I need to back off of the junk I'm eating.

@@heav85 Sucks to already be having issues. Old habits are so hard to break - continue to be aware and work on it.

You can do it!!

The Last picture is a little old (from September) but I'm only 3 lbs away from my goal. I'm in a size 11. I'm really happy where I'm at and wouldn't care if I lost the last 3 lbs! Very proud of all of us. Way to go!

March 15 in Louisiana

Well...I'm nervous to say, but in a very determined way my surgery date is March 22 at 11am!!! My bday is the 6th so I turn 30 then 2 days later start my journey. I start my 2 week liquid diet which I really need a buddy to keep sane or buddies!!!! I'm starting off nearly 390 lbs and about a 56 waist in polo jeans I'm border line diabetic and high cholesterol with bad legs lets cross our fingers and pray that after following my meals and good exercise as a dad of 2 super awesome kids my boy 4 and my girl at 7 months at 31 my next birthday I will be a bit healthier and here to stay a lot longer for these kidos!!!! And I wanna be ridiculously good looking again lol #bluesteel

Today at 11:00 is the start of a whole new way of life! I'm just hanging at my daughters place before the short drive to

Atlanta Surgery Center!

A year ago today, my life changed... call it a second chance. I want to give a huge shout out to the wonderful People at A Lighter Me, for making this change possible... I am still about 15 pounds from my goal weight, but feel with a little extra effort on my part, those pounds will fade away, as well!!! I also want to wish a Happy Surgiversary to my surgery sisters and brothers, who share today as the day their lives were changed! And to all those, waiting to have surgery or having had surgery recently.... it is life changing!!! Enjoy the experience, take notes, take pictures and soon the metamorphosis will be complete!!! Happy March!!!

I am March 9 and can't wait! Changing my life forever but a Lil nervous of the unknown
