August 5th woohoo!!!

I am so excited. I only started the journey on July 1st and I am having the surgery in August. I am also having the surgery on my best friends birthday and mom and dad's anniversary. What a day to celebrate!!! I could use some angel buddies to help me along the way as I am scared but I am scared to die if I don't have the surgery. I am 32, 5'5" and 360. I want to get to 180 if possible. I know there is so much to do, but I am so preoccupied with the surgery itself. I need to get out of this mode and get jiggy with it. Anyways, prayers to all and hope to chat soon. Shanna Dr. Archer, Bend, Oregon 360/300/250/180 BMI 61

Congrats! Your surgery is just 2 days before mine. I am feeling excited, nervous, anxious, happy, etc. Blessings to you on your journey.

Hi Shanna, I am having my surgery the day before yours. God Bless you on your path to the losing side. Prayers with you. If you would like to chat my email is [email protected] hugssssssssssss Jackie

Congratulations and best wishes for a speedy recovery. I pray you have an easy Journey free of complications.

Congratulations Shanna. My surgery is just a day before you. I live in Redding CA and have to travel 3 hrs to Modesto for my surgery. I want to get down to 180 as well. I am between 315 and 325 now depending on how swollen I am the day I weigh. I can't wait to get rid of this adema, they said it should go away when I lose the weight. Well good luck and I hope to keep on how your doing.

Congratulations on your date same day as mine. I'm having mine IN Park Rapids, Mn can hardly wait for it to be over so I can walk without pain. good Luck God Bless....... Donna

Congrats on your date!! I too am having my surgery on August 5. I can't believe how quickly the day is coming. I feel like I have so much to do before that I just don't know where to start. Good luck on your journey, hopefully we can both reach our goals!! I'm starting at 326 and hope to be at 180, with a lot of work we can do it!!!!
