Stephanie840910 37 Posted October 17, 2016 Ok I just got told I can have the surgery! My weight goes in between 207 to 220. I have to stay where I'm at so I can get it. Now I'm doing it because the women in my family get big in are 30s so I know I'm up and down but I can't get out off the 200 and I don't want to go up more so that's why I'm going for it. My mom also had problems getting the weight off and she had the gastro by pass and she is doing alot better. My surgery day is Jan 18th and I'm so nervous lol. Is there anyone out there that is new to this? Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nannare 38 Posted October 18, 2016 My surgery was based on my first visit weigh in. !y dr wanted me to lose weight, I guess to prove that I could do it. I started at 210 on my surgery day I weighed 194. Not a big loss but it helped to prepare my mind and body as to what was coming after surgery.. good luck Sent from my QTAQZ3 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
