I am scheduled to have my sleeve done on October 6th (started the process on March 1st, 2015.) I'd love to have a "surgery buddy" who is having the procedure the same day or very close to the date. Anyone interested?

I weigh every morning???? Keeps me on the right path.

GOODMORNING!

I try to stay below 1,000 calories. I write down and track everything or else I am inclined to go over. Seems like a lot of you aren't hungry but that hasn't really been my experience. I feel like I am always hungry!

Surgery was October 5. Am now 40 lbs down since beginning pre-surgery liquid diet, 55 since my highest weight.

SHAKTI. We are almost weight loss twins! We are the same height and had pretty much the same starting weight.

Hi Marcia! yes we do have a lot of similar stats but wow - you lost so much even before the surgery!

I've followed your story. I also had a delay I originally was supposed to get sleeved in late August. A few days before I knew I was feeling lousy, but hoped that this would not be an issue. So on the appointed day I checked into the hospital and was getting prepped for surgery. The anesthesiologist came in, checked me over, saw that I had a fever and a red throat and sent me home.

It was very hard -everything in the previous 4 months had led up to that first surgery day, and now it wasn't happening. I felt so let down, and I didn't know how to summon up the courage and energy to go through it again - but I did reschedule, I did another 2 week liquid diet, and here I am. So I'm glad you stuck with it!

Am now close to 240 lbs People notice but they're not sure what the difference is. I have big curly hair, so most people ask me if I cut, colored, or changed my hair!

Anyone watching the series Fargo? The accent sounds just like mine. Funny????
