Hi there!

Just thought I should introduce myself here!  I'm BJ, mother of two little boys.  Scheduled for my sleeve on 11-29.  Excited and terrified at the same time. 

This forum, in particular, has been a HUGE inspiration to me.  I no longer feel like I am alone in this journey.  I have an amazingly supportive husband, but to read from people who are in the same boat as me has been something of a blessing to me. 
So, with that....nice to meet yall!

Ver nice to meet you also.  I was so happy to see this forum also for exactly the same reasons as you.  For me, a RNY is such a serious, life altering surgery that I would never have considered it if I was only 100 pounds or so overweight.  It's been great seeing other peoples success.  My surgery is just 7 days before yours.

Good luck!

 Hello and Welcome to one of the best lil' boards on OH... hope you continue to find hope, and inspiration!!! We look forward to your posts as well!

Hi-
Our surgery is the same day! I love this board, it's the most friendly and non-judgemental. Please stay in touch with us all.

Hello and welcome!  You've found one of the greatest places on the web :)  Judgment free zone.  I love sharing my highs and lows here because I know no one understands as well as my friends here!  Stick around and best wishes on your upcoming surgery!

Thanks so much for the warm welcome!  I am officially scheduled for the 29th and start my two days of clear liquids the Saturday after Thanksgiving.  I've  been on three shakes a day for the past month and plan on making Thanksgiving a "last meal" of sorts!  I don't plan to go crazy or anything, but I am not making a turkey and not getting a bite of it! 
Had my pre op class last night and was excited that I had exceeded my goal of pre surgery weightloss, down to 329....336was my goal for pre surgery.  It's all so real to me right now!

Congrats to a new life and on weight loss so far!!  I am always excited for new ones have any type of WLS.  Look forward to hearing from you on the other side.....:-)
