Great! How are you doing?! My surgery is in 2 days and I'm filled with emotions right now... I was so excited to do the pre-op diet, but I have had some setbacks..... What was your experience like? How much contact did you have with the Dr? What were your stats? I'm 5'7" 380 lbs 30 yr old woman. :-)

I am doing alright, down 35lbs I've had a tough time accepting I can't eat like a "fat girl" anymore if that makes sense? Surgery went well, Dr said hi before I went back, checked on me the 2nd day in the hospital then saw him for my 4 week check up. My stats... Pre liquid diet 243, day of surgery 231. I'm am 32, female and 5'5...

So glad to see so many west side sleevers out there!!! I was sleeved on December 17th and trying to have a good recovery. I was very impressed with the hospital staff and the care I received. I would like to find a support group closer to home.... Maybe we can all get together and start one?

I think starting a support group would be amazing!

I could maybe once a month or something. I live in Mesa so that is quite a drive. I work in downtown Phoenix though
