Hey @ Amanda403, you are going to be fine! Are you going to be on YouTube? And what are you going to call it? Maybe something like "Anxious Amanda gets Her Sleeve"????

Hi everyone,

I'm scheduled for June 21st. Dr. Corvalo at Angeles Hospital. Total cost is $6500, i am so looking forward to this day!!

Roar us all an update when your surgery is concluded, Black Lioness, And God Bless? and Keep,you in the meantime.??

Hello All! I am having a hard time processing my feelings about my surgery so I am starting a blog. I have never edited video before so hopefully I can get better. This first video is longer than what the rest will be.
I go for my preop appointment this Thursday. I will be recording parts of that experience. I am not sure if this will help anyone, but it will hopefully help me at the bare minimum.

Thanks and and good luck! Surgery is June 11. So two week away!

Hi Amanda !

Thank you for sharing ! It is so importang to process our feelings in that journey. I know I have been an emotional rolley coster, and especially on this liquid diet It is so cool that you are doing this with your wife. Will you get the surgery on the same date ? I hope to see more of your videos.

I started my liquid diet on May 24th. It's going okay except that I am really tired. [/url]

Me too, this is terrible. I am not a napper unfortunately, and getting enough sleep is already a problem in my life. Anyways, 8 more days to go

Yes, we are going to do it on the exact same day and same surgeon. She is doing her at 7:30am and I am doing mine at 9am. My mom and Dad are going to help us as needed. So it is mice to have help!

Thank you Frustr8, I will take all the prayers i can get and will do the same for you all. Now if i can find a good packing list for this thing i'll be happy

I hope you two stay together, Carrie and Rachel the other LGBT Couple on YouTube, that was sad enough but people polarized into Team Carrie and Team Rachel, I enjoyed both their stories and I,did not choose either one.??

Amanda,

I enjoyed your blog and we have the same surgery date! I will definitely be following how you and your wife are doing. Also, I am happy you have parents willing to jump in and help you guys.

Hey, I’m scheduled for the 8th June 2018 in the uk. 224lbs before pre op diet x

Hi Pinkxxx, I am a few days before you on June 4th & starting at 17st (238lb).

Not many of us Brits on here! I'm a Londoner but am having the Op in the Czech Republic - would have loved to have it in the UK but didn't want to pay £12k or have to jump through endless hoops to get it on the NHS! Best of luck to you - not long now!

Good on you both. I'm sure everything will go well for you both and we all,ilook forward to several updates from you both. ?
