Hi all. I’m a new approved sleever set for November 13th ... I’m a teacher and in the Houston area.. so, this is the best date for me- right before thanksgiving!

Hello and welcome! I am scheduled to be sleeved on November 6th. Thanksgiving will be interesting for us both

I'm scheduled for the 15th (and I'm a teacher too)- so Thanksgiving Break is going to be interesting for me as well:)

Awesome! Really looking forward to starting this journey, glad to know we are not alone!

I am scheduled for Nov 27

I am here November 6th as well! Good luck to us all!

So I think we all know we are here to lose weight and begin this journey... for me I need to be healthy again, but what are you looking forward to the most... I keep talking about being active again with my husband and things I look forward to doing with my daughter but really deep down no joke, I will be excited to tie my shoes without feeling like I am going to roll forward and pass out... how about you guys what is that one thing that really keeps you determined? I know the hard work we have been doing to get to this point it is with in reach and I am so so so excited and ready!

I can not wait until I can cross my legs like a lady and feel comfortable.

I just want to feel better and have more energy and confidence when I walk into a room!

Hi I am new to the forums. But just got approved for my sleeve on Nov 5th. Would love to join conversation with other November sleevers!

Hi! There are a few of us early in the month so we can all prep together!

I agree I am so used to trying to hide when I walk in a room, but so clumsy I usually trip walking in... but it would be refreshing to feel that confidence of I am here!

I just want to feel healthy. And not feel ‘restricted’ all the time. And also I really want to be able to ride a roller coaster with my son without having to worry if I will fit in the seat!

I hear you about bending over to tie shoes and also being more active and having energy to do things with my husband and daughter. That is the one thing that keeps me determined-I am doing this so I can be around longer to grow old with my husband and be there as long as I can for my daughter
