Hi I am from Philadelphia I am starting this new journey and would like to know if theirs anyone out there in the beginning stages that want to be buddies. I am having my fist appointment on June 2 2017. I have started this all before but because I was missing to much work for appointments I stopped. Now that I found a Dr. Who will let me do all my test but one the same day I see light at the end. I did not tell many people besides my husband and daughter so would like to befriend someone else who is starting out. I am open to others even if already started it will be cool to also know what's ahead.:rolleyes:

I have to do a full six months before getting a surgery date I believe. I was hoping more like three so I wouldn't be down during the holidays..I have the whole gambit of issues from Diabetes high blood pressure, high triglycerides, arthritis and a BMI of 49. I am 53 yrs old 5'2 weight 276. I cant see one reason to not get sleeved.

@DJ Juice 6 months is a long time but I don't see no reason why you shouldn't have it. I will go thru the 6 months with you. I don't have any heath issues I am just fat I like sweets hell I love sweets.

I dont want to wait the 6 months because I am afraid Trump will take away insurance coverage because of the pre existing conditions crap he pushing so hard. Maybe that will get Wellcare to push it to go faster..lol

@jiminy_cricket congratulations on your date. last year I brought a conversation to my sisters and my mom about maybe getting the sleeve and guess what, they all had something to say. My sister are also over weight and for some reason they think they are a size 2 not. They are just as over weight as me. I am just ready to change. The only one who I can say really support me is my husband and daughter. So this time I am not telling anyone even when I get a date. It will be hard because we are all very close.

      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?
