Hello my surgery is October 28, 2021.

Good luck! I’m so happy I did it because now I’m the thinnest I’ve been in 40 years. I had my surgery January 28, 2021. I’ve lost 106 pounds in 9 months with 4 pounds to go to reach my final goal of 138 pounds. Please, please, please and I cannot reiterate this enough… drink your water and get 70 ounces of protein. I’ve been in the ER 3 times for dehydration. I still have a hard time getting 64 oz of water because I’m never hungry or thirsty.
 
I'm just seeing this today .. your surgery day. Congrats on your surgery. I hope you are feeling well. I am 16 months post op and saw my dr. yesterday. I am no longer diabetic, my BP is good and all my bloodwork is good. I don't have to take meds for anything. I tell you this so you know how much this surgery can improve your health. It's good to remind yourself when you're trying to suck down all that water that Flaash just mentioned lol Wishing you a speedy recovery!!
