It's getting really real now.

I'm scheduled for my post-surgery nutrition class next Friday, then my pre-op appointment is June 5, and the surgery date is JUNE 7TH!!!

In 20 days, it's going to happen.

Here's me and my sleeve sister, on Dec 30, and then yesterday. (I'm the tall one LOL) We are BOTH going to be at the conference in Anaheim, but MUCH smaller!

You both look great. So nice to have someone to join you on your journey. Best of luck! I did not regret mine. You probably will not regret yours.

Your transformation is already noticeable, almost 34lbs, way to go! It will be nice to have someone by your side that is going through the same thing. Good luck to both of you!

These are great Kathy, thanks so much! The list to pack for the hospital is a little intimidating...I was just planning on wearing a kaftan, and stuffing my heating pad, kindle, chargers and a spare pair of panties into a small bag. I may have to rethink it.

I'm definitely adding Biotene and chapstick to my list!

We are so excited for you! Those lists are just suggestions. You know best what you want to take and or not. But yes the chapstick is one we all needed. Keep us posted on how you do
