My name is Maggie, I'm from Florida. I'm currently 350 lbs at 5'7. I've got a bmi of 54.8. I'm set to go for surgery on August 26th, 2015 I'm so new at all of this, so I'm just trying to make it one day at a time. Anyone else out there with the same surgery date or tips???

I'm going with the gastric bypass. The doctor and I both agreed that is what would be best for me.

My stats are very similar to yours. I expect my surgery to be scheduled in September. Good luck during your prep period over the next few months.

Welcome to the team. I suggest you educate yourself as much as possible. I plan to have my surgery mid October of 2015. I can't wait!

Yeah, my doctor went ahead and scheduled out my surgery. I'm going through all of my doctors appointments right now. Today is the nutritionist. Just jumping through all of the hoops...
