Guest guest Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 I am new to the group. I am so looking forward to my Sleeve. This is the first time I have felt hope for myself. I have BMI of 43. I have my operation scheduled for January 30. I live close to Athens, Georgia so if anybody is going the same time let me know. I won't be alone. I will have two of my nieces going with me. I have been reading all the messages that are sent. They have helped alot. Any advice would be great. I have wonderful support from all my family except my husband. I think he'll come around by the time I get back from Mexico. I am so excited. > > Hello everyone, > I am new here and I have been reading some of your posts and I'm so glad I found this group. I am planning to have the sleeve done in February God willing. I have my husbands support but that's about it. I have people that say are concerned I will have complications and people that tell me I don't need surgery. I'm the only one that knows how bad I feel about being overweight and how worried I am about my health. I have a bmi of 34 and i would like to 50 to 60 pounds. I wanted to know if any of you have been sleved with a " low " bmi and what was your weight loss experience like such as how much weight you lost and how long did it take. I can't wait to be a healthier and happier me! > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
