January/February 2018 Sleevers

Anyone out there in the progress of getting approved and getting a date? I'm aiming for a January date but would not be surprised if it ends up February. Anyone else out there?

    Hiya! I have a date, February 6, 2018. I'm looking for buddies with dates close to mine and I'd like to put together a support group on the LINE messenger app, because it's free, I live in Taiwan, and I use it everyday. Interested?

    My surgery is February 5th

    hi everyone this is my first post- im scheduled for my surgery january 18th 2018-- excited but nervous-- things that are left for me to take care of is-- 1-- appt w. my primary doc to get letter of medical necessity 2.-- appt w. a psychiatrist for my psycho. evalu 3. -- pre op class 4.-- then surgery ----
    this whole process has actually got pretty fast for me- i started to look into to this end of Oct 2017 called bariatric surg. office on nov 3rd and had my first appt on nov . 30th.. since then i had a transnasal endoscopy which turned out good . no issues --the amt of weight i would like to lose is --80- 90 lbs--
    the main reason why i finally came to the decision to look into wls is-- i couldnt take any longer-- like most of us i have tried pretty much every diet out there and like my surgeon had stated to me i didnt fail the diets they all failed me and now its time to get this right---
    i do have a few worries or concerns --
    1- one of the reasons on why im in this boat is i like enjoy food and it enjoys me it scares me - i know once im down the road 6 +mths out i will be able to eat what i pretty much want its just the amt of it
    2.- will i be able to do this-- ? thats one of my fears im going to go through all of this and not keep the weight off--
    3. - i feel ashamed im doing this -- which i know is completely silly of me -
    4.- but im not telling anyone in my life really ( not yet atleast ) - the only two people in my life at this time that knows is my husband and my supervisor--
    ok--well-- i wish everyone wonderful surgeries to come and happy goals to be reached!!
    good luck to everyone!!
