Gitter Dunn 39 Posted March 22, 2013 Gentlemen, I've been a man's room browser for weeks now (don't like how that sounded) so I felt it was time to sign inand introduce myself. I started this process 4 months back to get insurance coverage and there I weighed in at 342 lbs. I've been thinking about a band at first but since getting on here and speaking with my surgeon getting a sleeve seems like a no brainer. I know is by no means going to be easy but not many good things in life are without the effort. I do want to say I've appreciated the topics and brutal honesty that goes on here and I plan to be an active participant to help others along the way. So with all that said I'm about 2 1/2 weeks out from the "Big Day" and I start my full liquid diet today! Wish me luck guys and gals. Oh I was reading a post about a fellow sleever just got his done for March Madness I hope all went well there. I hope you didn't have New Mexico in your pool though I find out I get Master's golf on while I'm recouping so it's all good! I'm ready,I'm pumped and I'm looking forward to this new journey for life. I'll be in touch fellow sleevers, Bruce Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moregoodtimes 331 Posted March 22, 2013 Welcome Bruce! Many of us just lurked for a bit before we posted. I learned everything i needed to know to help with this process before i had my surgery. It is beyond a doubt, the most exciting thing you will ever do for youself. Good luck with preop. It can be a b***h for some, but others seem to breeze right on through it. I think its all in the mindset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
