kjs1995 4 Posted September 30, 2014 My name is Kelly. I'm from NY. I'm getting sleeved in December. I have started the to do list for pre-op. I would love to talk to you guys. Pre-op or post-op people! You can direct message me. I hope you all have a lovely day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
devint 162 Posted October 1, 2014 Hi Kelly, congrats on starting your journey!! I'm around the same height as you, and about 4 months post op. I've lost four dress sizes so far so the tricky part has been acquiring new clothes through swaps, thrifts and good ol fashion retail therapy. Do you have any questions about what to expect? Or are you worried about anything in particular? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kjs1995 4 Posted October 4, 2014 You go girl! That's really amazing! I went to a post op/pre op support group tonight and they answered all my questions which is great. I'm sure I will still have more along the way but I will reach out. How do you feel, how was recovery? For you personally what has been the hardest part?

Sleeve_Sistah85 193 Posted October 6, 2014 Hey Kelly! I'm Crystal...also from NY...Brooklyn to be exact. I literally decided to have WLS 3 weeks ago after 5 years of thinking about it. Met with my primary care provider today to start my 6 month diet and this Saturday I have a meeting with a weight loss surgeon. If my calculations are correct...I should be eligible for surgery April of 2015....and thats not soon enough lol Congrats on your December surgery date!...Keep in touch!

kjs1995 4 Posted October 7, 2014 That's awesome! I just got a call from my surgeon today that I have been bumped up to November 22nd. I thought I had to wait longer for insurance. So you never know with them. I'm super excited for you! I can't answer any questions now cause I'm still in pre-op and have a ton of questions myself but when I'm post-op I can help out if you need. Good luck on your journey! You go girl! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
