I have my surgery on March 27, 2013. Just got approved yesterday Afternoon!

I just got approved for surgery yesterday. I am five foot four 225 pounds my goal is 150 pounds. However I want to go down to 180 by july is this possible? I need feed back peoples testimonies anyone with a similar situation out there?

Yay! I'm scheduled for the 26th and I'm too happy! Everyone looses at different rate but from what I've seen on here is that's very doable if you do your part (water rest protein exercise) Good luck :)

we can do this!

Totally do-able. Do what you can to maximize your weight loss in those first 3 months. Keep diet with lean protein and veg, get 80-100 gms protein in once swelling is down and your intake is stabilized, keep carbs under 30 gms and drink minimum 100 oz water per day, and exercise.

My mother and co worker have both done the sleeve which is what i am doing. My mom has not lost so much but my co worker lost alot more. He went completely vegetarian  I was thinking of doing that after surgery for the first four months to lose max weight and have the best out come. When did you have your surgery done im new to the website so i do not know how this works
