hhwhittington 14 Posted May 18, 2012 My sister and I are in this together. She and I are both having our sleeves tomorrow and will be in a semiprivate room. I have lost 13 pounds on our 2 week liquid diet and hope that the success will continue. 3 MGM, PEvette and Amytequilahouse reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lizard476 14 Posted May 18, 2012 Hey! This is the sister! We are on our way to the hospital now.all I can say is we are both a bundle of nerves right now!! My sister and I are 18 months apart and live next door to each other so doing this together was a no brainer. Please keep us in your prayers! 3 Mela, Amytequilahouse and ChristineS NY reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
