Welcome Dawn! I am just beginning myself. What surgery did you decide on? What things do you have to do before you get your surgery date?Hello all my name is Dawn, I am 46 yrs old and I am just starting my journey to a better and healthier me.

I decided on the sleeve because it looked like I would possibly have less complications. I know I have to meet the dietician, physical therapist, and social worker. I also have to have some blood work done. I already quit smoking and cut diet soda out. I even bought a few bariatric cookbooks. Stocked my fridge up with healthy food, protein shakes and lots of water.
