Hey guys! I am new to this group, and am in the evaluation/intake process for surgery. I am so hoping that it comes sooner than later. I have done so much research, listened to stories, and am ready for my journey to begin. I have my next appt. in two weeks, and I have lost some of the weight they have required, and seen the nutritionist and psychologist.

Here's to getting more support from you all. I am looking for friends to support me now here, on MFP, so if you would like, please add me.

Suzanne

    Welcome! I had my sleeve done 8/30/13. I am down about 45 pounds. 25 pounds right before surgery, and 20 since surgery. I feel GREAT! I wish you the best!

    I was sleeved on August 1, 2013, and it's the best decision I've ever made. I only wish I'd done it sooner. I was turned down by my Insurance company, and went to Mexico to have it done. It was an amazing experience. Everything was pre-arranged, there were no surprises, very professional and safe.
