Praying for a full recovery! I know its hard not to worry about it but turn it over to God! He will work it out for you! The road to a new you is right in front of you; be strong and know that everything will work out in your favor!!

I'm experiencing the same thing. My surgery is 4 days away and my cycle JUST started. Please update us when you can!

Hello Ladies, I've been blessed to have a smooth process. I'm 28, 5'10 and 265 pounds; therefore, I've gotten some negative responses from others about not needing WLS. My height helps me look slimmer but most people have no idea that I weigh so much. In addition to being heavy, my health has been slowly going downhill. I have hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, nerve damage (that previously caused paralysis) and major issues with my bladder. Therefore my close friends, family and I find WLS to truly be a blessing! Losing 80-100+ pounds will enable me to be sexy and HEALTHY!! I started my process on Feb 5th and my surgery is scheduled for March 15th. I send wishes of good luck, better health and sexier looks to all of you!

I'm 5 days pre-op and grateful for your post.... I saved it as a memo so that I have great tips and possible expectations for the next 5-6 months. Thank you so much for sharing these personal details to help us get through some of the tough moments!!!

Thank you so much for your help! I'm going to look into your suggestions right now! Thanks again!

I'm so excited and grateful..... I recieved the call today informing me that my procedure is scheduled for March 15th.

lovetobeme, I started my process early this week and was told to expect approx 1 month for surgery from my appt. I started with a doctor in New Orleans but I live closer to Houma... What was the name of the doctor that completed your Psych eval? The doctor in New Orleans that was recommended is holding up the process since she won't be able to see me until the 18th. Also, where did you do your sleep study? If I can speed those two things along, I may be able to have everything done as planned!! I may also look into switching surgeons to complete my process in Houma if it doesn't mess up the process that I've started! Take care and wish me luck!
