Hi, just thought I'd give a little introduction, as I've really enjoyed reading about everyone's successes here! My name is Josette, I'm 19 and from Oregon. I am set to have my sleeve done on the 23rd of June, 2015 in Coos Bay. I am on my second day of liquids! This won't be my first weight loss surgery, I had a band placed in 2013 in Mexico by Dr Ortiz, that had to be removed September 2014 in the states due to complications. Looking back I should have saved up and gotten the sleeve the first time, but I'm so excited to start my journey now; and I cannot wait to see all of your wonderful progress here! (:

Here are my numbers:

Hw: 350

Cw: 344

Sw: ?

Gw: 160

Thank you! Oh that's great! He is a good surgeon, with great bedside manner! I should mention that none of my complications were surgeon related haha. Good luck to you too! (:

I'm June 23, too. I'm having some anxiety attacks (mostly because I'm feeling so yucky on the pre-op diet and am worried about post-op functioning at work), but I'm trying to stay focused on the long-term goal!
