ajustice 484 Posted January 7, 2014 Hi! Congrats on your upcoming surgery. A wonderful way to start a brand new year off. My biggest advice is take the journey as your own. Try not to compare your loss or success to anyone else's. It drove me crazy! Be kind to yourself also! Stalls will happen but don't get upset or frustrated it happens to all of us and my biggest point of advise is enjoy the discoveries and excitement you go through watching your body change. 1 SnowDaisy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hmjdreamingbig 93 Posted January 7, 2014 I am from CNY also! Just wondering who your surgeon is? I have Dr. Dalencourt with Dr. Graber's practice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singlecnygal 5 Posted January 15, 2014 I am from CNY also! Just wondering who your surgeon is? I have Dr. Dalencourt with Dr. Graber's practice. I have Dr DeSimone at Crouse hospital. Only two weeks left! Getting psyched!! 1 SleevedSharon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skinny_minnie_wannabe 30 Posted January 16, 2014 Congrats!!! I got the go ahead today for Feb 10th. It is so overwhelming for me. Keep us updated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jackie8508 7 Posted January 17, 2014 Well I got my 2 week high protein/liquid diet but the surgery might be pushed back because of my thyroid levels being off the chart. However they have me back on the meds and will recheck me next week. As long as the levels are coming down they will do the surgery but if no change it could be another 6 weeks. I am praying that the meds kick in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jackie8508 7 Posted January 19, 2014 (edited) Are you hypothyroid? Did they have to increase your meds? All the best. X Yes they increased them about a week ago but the levels were 7x higher than normal. I am just praying that it works out I don't want to wait another couple weeks. Congrats on getting a date skinny_minnie Edited January 19, 2014 by Jackie8508 1 SnowDaisy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
