Hi Tinab08, I'm having the sleeve done around mid-August. My family does not know and therefore I am also looking for a buddy to share experiences with. I'm new to this forum:)

I just went for my first consultation today. I haven't told anyone, I don't want anyone to talk me out of it. None of my family or friends have weight issues like mine, so I don't feel they'll understand.

I'm no where near having my surgery scheduled yet, but I understand the way you are feeling.

you def create a bond with people who get sleeved, before my surgery I just wanted to talk about it, mourn my food and my body....its hard to explain to non sleevers!

Great to see there's ppl from all over! I'm new to this site so I'm trying to figure out if you 'add friends' like fb or if you just have to msg ppl?

Ahh... I have added y'all as friends. It couldn't be done thru the phone app... I had to go to Web View. I'm Stephanie, 37 yrs old from OKlahoma and so excited about my journey! Bear with me as I'm a little techno-tarded☺️

I love meeting new ppl and am glad I stumbled upon this group!

I'm July 16th as well. What kind of preop diet do u have to do? Mine is 7 days full liquid and 3 days clear liquid (total 10 days). I'm now regretting working up to my surgery date because I feel so weak, ha. Did I mention the Clear Liquids had to be sugar-free?
