May!

Hi! I'm scheduled to be sleeved on May 2nd. I'm looking for buddies who are getting sleeved around the same time. Doesn't need to be on the same day. Looking for others who are like me, more relaxed, and whose program is not keto and super low carb. My program and nutritionist promote moderation and healthy choices.

I'm 38, stay at home mom of 3. I like video games, anime, Buffalo sports, reading, writing...I'm working on trying to enjoy working out. I talk to my best friends a lot, but one is thin and really can't get everything I talk about, and the other is plus size, but accepts that about herself, and in fact, seems to try to avoid talking about the surgery with me other than wishing me the best. I don't want to push it, I was really uncomfortable once at the notion of WLS . Having someone who understands and is going through a lot of what I'm going through to talk to would be really helpful.

Hi! I'm May 2 as well. Our backgrounds sound similar - I talk to my friends a lot, but I know what you mean, they don't quite get it. I'm 39, have two boys and work outside the home. (Just went through a divorce, but it's for the best, so I'm ok with that.)

I'm ready and very excited. Haven't decided the route I'm taking yet, other than healthy eating post recovery. I have just learned to like the gym and overall healthier lifestyle.

Would love to share our experiences and help keep other on track. Maybe through FB as this gets very confusing with all the threads!

How are you all doing? I'm feeling mostly good, just some soreness, and a bit of nausea. My tummy doesn't seem to like anything but sugar free popsicles.

I'm not hungry at all, but my head likes to play games. It's not terrible though. The fact that I'm already seeing my weight drop helps. I was only 5 lbs heavier after surgery from fluids, and they dropped within two days.

I'm really looking forward to moving without pain though.
