First Time Poster - Long Time Eater - Just Introducing Myself

[Terry H. 196]

Hi Everyone. I'm new to the forum (been lurking for a while). I'm working toward a sleeve hopefully in September or October. I currently weigh about 411 pounds and am on a 3 month program to meet Aetna requirements. I am excited and frightened by the prospect of the surgery and the expected results and lifestyle change. All of you here are inspirational. I'm not a big sharer but that may be one of the changes that I need to make on my journey. I'll post more as I work through the hoops!

Hi Terry! I, too, am new to the sleeve. I am just in the beginning stages. Had bi-lateral knee replacement surgery a year ago and my weight is just out of control. currently I weigh in at 295(heaviest ) and can't seem to get the damn scale to go in the other direction...lol Anyway, please keep me posted on your journey to becoming "sleeved"
