RussT 495 Posted November 18, 2016 Hi there. I had my gastric sleeve surgery on November 9th 2016. I was 470 pounds before the 2 week pre-op diet. Was down to 440 the day of surgery and now one week post-op I'm 420. I made a video that tells my story better than typing it. I'll do another video in a month or so I guess.

shedo82773 1,236 Posted November 18, 2016 Everything that you are saying is totally what we all go thru!! Our WLS helps us by making it physically able to follow our path. The mind is a powerful part of this. The surgery is a TOOL but we really have to do the work!! If only the surgery fixed our head too. You have awesome outlook on your expectations!! Good Luck on your Journey!! I look forward to following it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
