Signed up a couple of weeks ago and and just now found the introdution section. Better late than never i suppose. I went for my seminar on august 9, 2011. I had my first dr. appt on august 15, 2011. Started my pre-op diet on august 19, 2011. My surgery is set for this friday sept 2. I am very excited , but nervous at the same time. My starting weight was 244, i have lost 10 pounds so far on my pre-op diet, so now i am at 234. I am 38 yrs old. I have been married for 17 yrs, and have two beautiful daughters ages 12 and 10. I had a heart attack on february 13, 2008, and a triple heart by-pass on feb 21, 2008. I am so looking forward to getting my life back on track so i can be here for my babies and grandbabies one day. I am very happy to be a part of this website, it is very informative and has helped answer many of my questions so far.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
