Good evening everyone I’m new to the group. Im from NC and I’m having the gastric sleeve procedure 8/6/21. I’ve been in this process since 2017 and hit an obstacle when I found out I had sarcoidosis in 2018. That ultimately lead to me being on prednisone for about 2 years….and I gained a lot of weight which put my journey on hold. I found a new surgeon who actually listened to me and assessed my situation he agreed to do a stage procedure (gastric then bypass). I’m so ready for this I’ve been praying about it for years and in and out of depression behind weight and just life in general. I’m 32 years old no kids. I’m ready to live my life and not let my weight determine my day. Any tips pre-op would be helpful. I welcome suggestions.

Hey. Welcome. I'm in NC as well. Had my surgery at Wake Med. My best advice is to just do what your team tells you to do. They know what they're doing. Good luck to you and enjoy this exciting process!

I see you're in Sanford. I'm just outside of Aberdeen and Southern pines.
