I have all my testing being done throughout February. Then send everything to get approval! I'm hoping to have my RNY in late March-early April.

Here is my picture for before! Can't wait to see the after!post-308264-14862697795256_thumb.jpg

Hello and yay for short girls!

I'm Kim and I'm 5'2 1/2"

HW 229

CW 216

Sleeve Surgery next Wednesday the 8th!

I decided not to choose a GW yet because I'm 53 and post menopausal thanks to chemotherapy treatment in 2010 AND have Hashimoto's Thyroiditis so I'm not too sure what my metabolism is capable of. I'm going to give it everything I've got and am looking forward to getting healthy and off of some medication very soon. I just found this site last night but can't figure out how to navigate an add to my profile, etc so any help would be much appreciated.

I don't know about you all but I have been looking forward to being called "Petite" after I get rid of this weight!! Not that the fashion choices are great but it just sounds better than "short and stocky" !

So cheers to our petite and pretty group!!
