Hello Everyone.!

I am new to this site and I am set to be sleeved 01/13/2014. I am nervous but excited for what my future holds. I pray for no complications and a smooth transition. I am also having my gallbladder removed due to complications I have been having for the past year with it. I will continue to look at this site for guidance and to hear others and there stories.

Hi everyone.

I just wanted to drop in and introduce myself to everyone. I was sleeved on the 19th of Dec. As of last week I was 23 pounds down. I will have my 3 week post op weigh in tomorrow. I love my sleeve with all my heart. No complications. No pain. Having trouble remembering to eat and drink but that's not the worse thing in the world! wishing everyone the best!

ualaw08- can you provide us with your starting stats? Weight/Height? Just wondering as I'm scheduled to be sleeved 1/13/14 and getting an idea of where somone started helps me get a gauge for where I may be. Btw I'm 5'3 HW-220

Rny here, but haven't found a thread for people of color there. Just had my final dr. Visit today and turned in all my paperwork. Hoping for a February surgery. By the way, I'm 49 and single in Columbus, Ohio

Best wishes to all the newbies. You're going to start on your way to a rewarding, but sometimes frustrating journey. You'll have successes, stalls, and some issues with your new sleeve, but your life is going to change for the better. I was sleeved on 2/19/13 and have lost 116lbs on my way to my goal of a total of 150lbs lost.

Thanks for sharing! It helps much to see where I could be in less than ONE YEAR ????! I am so looking forward to my future! Sleeved on 12-18 and down 24 lbs today. Saw the doc today and free to start working out a bit more. Hopefully, that will give me more energy.
