Good luck! Keep me posted! I'm a week behind you

Hi! I'm 7/30 as well welcome!

I start on Monday. Trying to ease into in this weekend. So nervous you guys! I'm an emotional roller coaster! Happy- nervous- scared- disbelief. You name it, I feel it. I'm just trying to stay focused.

Mine is on 7/30 as well. I would love to stay connected!

That's awesome! Congrats to you!!!

That's amazing! Keep up the good work!

I just got my surgery date (Yaaay! July 30th). How long after surgery do we have to wait to have sex? Or a better question I guess- how long until I will want to again? Lol. Any words of wisdom welcome

Hooray on getting a date! I'm right there with you very excited as it gets closer.

Hi there, So I'm feeling very nervous about the endoscopy. My last appointment and possibly my biggest hurdle lol. How bad is it? How long does it take? I am afraid of pain or not being able to breathe- probably irrational but would love to hear your thoughts. thanks!

Good luck! See you on the other side- I'm right behind you so keep us posted

Well I'm a 7/30- is that close enough

Wow! That's awesome! Sooo happy for you!

Yaaay! Keep us posted! Right behind you and I cannot wait!

You look amazing! Congrats on your success!!

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the feedback.

That sounds so great! Good job! How much are you down? And do you have any advice for the soon to be sleeved

That's awesome! I'm so happy to hear that!! Keep us posted

You're an inspiration!! Great work!

Don't back out now- you worked so hard to get this far. You can do it! You have us

I think what is particularly irritating is the underlying assumption that I haven't tried diet and exercise- That I hadn't put any thought or research into this surgery- That I didn't look at every option and weigh it out. I think that most people who have had or are planning wls are experts at dieting. For me personally I want the surgery to support me with keeping it off. I just wish people would stop thinking its a miracle cure or easy way out.

So excited for you!! Here we go!

It's my date too! So excited with you!! Good luck with your surgery

Me too! Can't even wait!

Keep us posted! I'm 3 weeks behind you and so excited for you!

I have decided to keep it quiet until after the surgery. I think even well meaning people can be a little mean. what is funny to me, is that over the past few months I have actually found out that a few people I've known for a while have had the surgery several years ago. They are incredibly healthy, happy people. It has come up in conversation naturally and each time I feel reassured that it's a great option. I have felt like it was a sign.
