I'm trying to get some clarity..Im seeing comments here and there about compression suits being used to keep the skin tight thus helping to prevent loose skin. I'm wondering if anyone has used these and if so, do you feel this has helped to reduce the excess skin?? I can see it holding things in place, but Im looking for more information before I start investing money into these. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!!!

Happy NOVEMBER!!!!!!!

That is so awesome!!! Congratulations!!!! I wish you the best and thank you for the informative post!!!

The best tip I got. Get The BIG book on the Gastric Sleeve from amazon. Its got so much great info!! Welcome to the November sleevers!! (I'm 11/18)

Wow buckeye_girl40!! You look amazing!! I love love love seeing inspirational posts like this! You give me hope!!

Good luck!!! I'm so excited for you all!!

I had all the requirements/ nut appts complete. Then was on hold 5 weeks for insurance approval. The next day after the approval, I got the call and was scheduled out 1 month exactly!

Hey Volley girl! . I start the pre-op liquid diet on 11/4. I can have protein shakes, limited tomato soup and oatmeal during this time also so I don't think it will be too bad! I'm in Iowa, 5'9. - 310 with a 160 goal. Only lost 7lbs so far on my own, but hoping the liquid phase will kick start a loss! Lord I hope this works for me!!

Eeekk!! I have a dated sleeve family to join! Got my call today and I'm set to start my new life Nov. 18!!! (Though I'm still practicing for my new roll) I can't believe it! Everything was so slow until now.. 1 month!!! Yowsers I can't wait!!

Thanks for the info! I will cut these out! Only 1 puts me at the carb limit!!! Wow!

Question? I do not have a date scheduled yet but I'm looking for tips to jump start my weight loss success. My liquid diet when I get to that phase, allows protein shakes, oat meal.. non-solid foods so I have been practicing this regimen with no loss. so I'm wondering if anyone with a successful liquid diet loss could share some helpful tips??? I've been drinking meal replacement protein shakes and I'm wondering if that's holding me back..??

Congratulations!! Welcome to your new beginning!! I wish you the best!!!

I'm hoping to get s date in January. Everything here is at such a turtle pace its almost depressing reading these forums!! The time will catch up with us before we know it!
