Surgery set for 16th October

Hi my name is Jenny and I'm 30 years old. I've struggled with my weight since I was diagnosed with pcos at 15 years old. In the last couple of years it has gotten out of hand. I am currently the heaviest I've ever been which is both scary and disappointing. After months of Internet research and many failed attempts of diet and exercise I decided things really needed to change and I definitely needed to take my life back! My surgery date is set for 16th October. If anyone has similar dates I am interested in having a support buddy who is going to be going through or has been through the same journey.

    Hi all,

    I am Mindy-36yrs old and from New Orleans (the place of AMAZING food lol).

    I am approved by insurance and currently awaiting two potential dates.

    It could be Oct 5th or the 12th. If not then I go into November.

    Awaiting the call any minute now...anxiousness is getting to me.

    I have started my preop diet which is two shakes and a small meal (Protein and veggie only).
