Hello I just want to say that I love this site and all of the positive energy! Here's a little bit about myself.. I am a 24yr old mother of one child. My fiance and I have been together for 8yrs and are finally set to get married in march 2017. I've always had a weight problem and finally started my journey! I had my first apt at shands in Gainesville and will have a surgery date in a few weeks!! Can't wait to start losing weight!! Good luck to everyone!!

I just had the procedure at 49 yo and wish I had done it years ago. Good luck and congratulations. Just think how much fun it will be to be able to keep up with your child because you will feel great. You will also enjoy being the center of attention at your wedding looking fab!

I wrote a review right after my surgery about my initial recovery. I was told the pain was similar to my gallbladder removal. It was not. I was running around the day after that operation. This was tougher. The good news is everyone is different but we get through it. If you find yourself miserable (like I was) just remember, this too shall pass and you will get better. It is worth it. I cannot believe how much better I feel each and every day.

Be strong,...this is truly personal journeys,...I'm scheduled for the Gastric Sleeve procedure on July 27. It's been a long path,...but I'm ready. Headed to my two second, on my clear liquid diet. Good luck with everything, and don't be a stranger. Take care.

It will be the best thing you have ever done for yourself. To carry that extra pounds is to put your heart under tremendous strain non stop! I let it go until it effected my knee's. I had surgery for the knees two weeks ago and thank goodness I had that 70 extra pounds gone before the surgery for it. I promise you will be a beautiful bride and your honey will carry you over the threshold. Blessings
