Oh I will definitely be on here keeping everyone up to date- I also have a blog so feel free to check in :) and when I started the process I did the math on how long it would take me to get everything done and DECIDED I without a doubt WILL get my surgery in September and even tho the nurse doubted my ability make it happen- I did it! So dont ever give up it will be hard but it is most definitely worth it!!! There is a light at the end of the tunnel!

Hi Amber, I'm in Austinburg so we are in the same neck of the woods :) I had my Sleeve done on Sept. 19, but at UPMC Hamot in Erie, PA. I hope you've been recovering well! :)

Wow, we're neighbors practically! I have been recovering pretty well, got my staples and stuff out yesterday and actually ended up having my gastric bypass on the 14th!

@@john925, @@The Starving Mom,

I hope you are both recovering well. I have my last NUT appointment at UH next Wednesday then everything will be submitted to insurance. I hope to schedule surgery for the first week of November. Any general feedback about your experience with UH? Dr. Khaitan is my surgeon. I'm starting to get excited and nervous!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
