So I find myself doing the last meal/last beer binge before the life-changing surgery on Jan 8th. food not so much as the beer. I'm not physically addicted but sure am habitually addicted. This is going to be a hard transitition but I'm dedicated and motivated to go to preop diet Monday the 6th. I hope I can reach out to you when I leave those beers behind. I met a new future sleeve buddy (Lucy) who gets surgery later in the month in Mexico. I look forward to sharing our experience/triumphs/failures with each other. Blessed be to all the Jan 2014 newly sleeved friends!!!

Cheers!

Deb

Do any of you have a specified amount of weight to lose before surgery? I was told I needed to lose 5% of my starting weight
