Looking for experience buddies around 300 pounds

[Obeasta 92]

Hi friends

I am following Cherry's example and I am also looking for experience buddies to be together on this rollercoaster.

Do you have your date in the next week or two? My date is on 17 April.

And currently I am weighing in at 324 pounds.

Would be great if there is someone out there around the same weight and operation date, we could motivate each other and just connect to check in and see how things are going.

I am excited and scared at the moment!

I started at 331, I am now 308 and my surgery date is a week and a half after you!

I started at 391 and am currently 358. Surgery is April 15th. CAN'T WAIT!! Excited and slightly nervous. The 2 week liquid diet is tough but pushing through.

@ Rem - wow, congrats on your weightloss! you're doing well! I have been struggling to lose weight before-hand. I stopped smoking cold turkey and it made me turn to food, so this last few months I've actually put on weight! I am a pound or 2 away from my weight the doctor has of me! Oh dearie me! Hopefully I can shed a few pounds more this last week, so that i clock in "under" you know?

@MrsLulu - WOW! That is a huge amount, congrats! You are two days before me! I know this feeling of excited and slightly nervous all in one. Just take it one day at a time, only 5 little sleeps left!

I actually lost 5 lbs while I was working on approval I then quit cold turkey from smoking and gained 6lbs. My doctor understood. I've lost a couple more since my appoint 2 weeks ago and she didn't kick me out of her office and she still scheduled my surgery. Lol so, I wouldn't worry. The reason we are having this surgery is for this exact reason. It's a roller coaster ride that will never end even after surgery. We lost the battle but, we'll win the war! congrats on quiting smoking! It was hard for me too!
