@@leonelbreton how was it!? I've never had any surgery before and mine is scheduled for March 29th, and I am so frickin terrified! I'm rooting for you!!

I'm getting sleeved March 29th and also keeping it on the DL lol

That's awesome you didn't lose any hair! I have educated myself for over a year now on the surgery, and hearing others advice and success helps cam me down.... Especially since I now have a surgery date. I do currently work out hardcore, at least 4 times a week, and have been very good with my diet as well. I know I'm still in shock that I have even got approved, but a lot of fears are surfacing now.

At my biggest, I was 270. When I started my 6 months for approval I was 235. Today I am 201 and approved. As much as I want to go through with it, I am terrified about the restrictions and hair loss. I have PCOS, so my weight comes back extremely fast if I fall off the wagon. I want to get the surgery because my food intake is what holds me back, and feeling like I'm starving. I'm 100% in the zone, but I feel like not feeling hungry anymore and not physically being able to eat much would really set me up for success to get to goal. Can anyone help me out!? I've never had any surgery so I am extremely nervous of that as well.

Mine is scheduled for March 29th. Scared out of my mind!

Ok here comes a bunch of questions, I apologize in advance. What did you get down to and in how long? Did you have hair loss and if so how bad? What's the biggest restriction post surgery other than not eating a lot?

What was your weight on the day of surgery if you don't mind me asking?

I just got approval from ins and surgery scheduled March 29, 2016. My current weight is 203 and I'm 5 3. I am so nervous! I have been loosing weight the past 5 weeks I've buckled down and lost 20 lbs, I feel better and ppl are noticing my weight loss and do not think I should get it. As an emotional eater/ bored eater/ the list goes on, I feel like this is the best tool for me. I've never had any surgery, so that alone scares me to death. The recovery, and hair loss are really beginning to mess with my head. I have pcos so it is extremely difficult for me to lose weight and actually maintain it... One slip up makes me gain 5 lbs it feels I would really love to hear some words of comfort, I am still in shock that I was approved, and now that I have a date set I am already so anxious and freaked out. My biggest fear is making this huge life changing decision / life style change, and it not really being "worth" what all I am about to give up. Help!!!!!
