Mine 2! I think there are a few of us on Feb. 20.

Hi! My surgery is Feb. 26.

Possibly end of February, latest March 7th. Hubby and I started this journey together. We have always based everything in our lives around everyone else. This journey is all about us. He had gastric bypass in December. After I might add he lost 43 lbs pre surgery. We started lifestyle changes at end of Aug 2017. He joined a program first. I followed first part of September. He is doing absolutely amazing. Weight loss after his surgery is moderate. Possibly because he lost so much before. Unsure at this point and it really does not matter. He has gone from a 44 waist pants to a loose 34. He is beyond happy. All his work is paying off. My incredibly shrinking man.
I am so absolutely happy to know I’m right behind him. Our new life begins!!!! BW 367 CW 320. Good luck everyone on this new beginning we have all chosen. Gonna be an amazing ride!!!!


Are you also going to be a bypss or a sleeved. I am about the same size as you starting out. maybe we'll be drag racing thru Weight loss? I'm 323 down from 355 on a tired & arthritic 5ft8in frame. Some days I feel as old as dirt but I'm,only 72. I'm kinda special ,well I guess we all are. I'm in a select group. There are War Babies born during WWII. Baby Boomers born 1946 until 1960s. Gen X Gen Y. Millenials.I am an Occupation Baby, we were born August 6th until December 31st 1945. We usually hang with the Baby Boomers because they're closest,in age to us.we've shared a lot of the same things. lastly because we're very nice people. I will have a RnY early-mid March myself at Mount Carmel in Columbus. I live 14 miles from the geographic center of Ohio and love all the new friends I've made on Bariatric Pal. Lets be friends okay?

My surgery date is Feb 19 & this Pre-op diet is really hard.

I didnt have to do a pre-op liquid diet. I was expecting it after hearing about it, but my surgeon doesnt do it. At least you have a boost start on the weight loss though!!

My surgery is February 22nd!
