Any Oct 6 Sleevers out there?

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?

Hit my GOAL (190) this morning! Down 91 lbs overall, 62 lbs post surgery. My wife keeps telling me to STOP Losing Weight!

Unreal!

That is SO exciting! Congratulations. Pretty soon we will all be joining you. So happy for you! Woo Hoo!

Hey October Sleevers how's everybody doing??? I'm still trying to get to Onederland ...

Way to go!

I'm Oct 13th. I'm down 87 in total and 70 since surgery. I found the elusive Onderland yesterday. Weight is coming off so much slower now, and I still have 55 pounds to loose.

I'm down 75 since October 6th. I'm 29 lbs from doctors goal (which I think was conservative) and 50 lbs from my personal goal. As of this morning I'm finally officially "just overweight" instead of "obese" and never going back!

I'm down 52...Slow but steady. Should hit Onederland in the next month. Once I do I will also weigh less than my husband for the first time in our relationshipm, which I am way more excited about than he is. Feeling pretty good...feeling like I have lots of energy for the first time in years!

I'm now in Maintenance. I'm using a combination of daily regiments. When I weigh in below my goal weight, I allow GREEN days; where I do my best, but don't log my foods.

When I drift above my goal, I snap back to my month 3 diet and log everything (no alcohol). So far this is working well, but mostly due to the sleeve restriction that kicks in regularly on green days.

No matter what color my days are, I'm getting in 70,000+ steps a week.

Surgery Oct 5. Have lost 45 pounds. Nice to hear updates!

We are very close in our weight loss. I was also sleeved on October 5th and I'm down 46 pounds.

It is nice to hear about other success, and to know Someone else has a similar weight loss as me.

Cat. We are so close. Lap band revision . Sleeved Oct 9. Down 46 pounds. Congrats on your weight loss.

Yes I remember your a revision too! And our weight loss is the same! Isn't that good to know! Sometimes I feel like the The tortoise in the race with the hare.

I'm 5'4", female current weight 216, I can almost touch Onederland, but it will take me about 2 more months to get there.

How about you?

Catherine

I love knowing that there is someone else close or the same. I always feel like I am at the back of the pack too. It seams like I am losing so much for slower than other people. I am 5'3" I am at 182.3. I have not been the low in 22 years. I love it.
