Hello Everyone!!
Hi, I've just started on the process to get my surgery done (I'm so very excited!) I'm having the gastric sleeve. I have about 10 lbs more to lose and a few more things to do at the doc's office and such and them he'll be ready to do it lol. I'm just waiting on him =) When I found the Oklahoma message board I just wanted to stop by and say hi! It's so nice to have a place like this to get support from. Hope to get know many of!

Hi, Heather.
It's very nice to meet you. Welcome to the OK board. It's full of wonderful, caring, kind, and knowledgable people. They even let a KS girl (me) post. :)
Once you get those 10 lbs. off, everything else will fall into place quickly. There were times that I despaired being able to take off the required number of pounds, but it happened. :)
You're going to love your sleeve!
Blessings,
Mary

Hey Heather! I'm Amy and welcome to the Okie Board. You are doing great, just 10 more lbs to go. This is the hardest part in many ways because you don't have your sleeve yet to help you with the weight loss. My sleeve saved my life, changed my life, allowed me to live my life istead of eating myself ot death. Congratulations on your decision.
