Hi everyone,
My name is Jessica. I am in Atlanta, GA, and I am scheduled to be sleeved on 10/19/2016.
I'm very excited, nervous, antsy about the upcoming journey! I look forward to helping support others and hearing about your stories and experiences.

Re: Hello - Newbie Intro :)
✨Welcome!✨
Congratulations on your decision, and know your life is about to change for the better in 99% of most cases. For me the risks were less than if I stayed on the same path.
You've definitely have come to the right place, I found reading older threads extremely helpful when I first joined the forum.
You will find a fountain of support and sage advice from veteran sleevers, as well as those in their early stages.
Watch Dr. Matthew Weiner YouTube channel for what to expect before/after surgery.
Wishing you the best of wishes!HW: 245lbs (11/15); SW: 226lbs (5/17/16) - Height: 5'6"

Welcome!
It's normal to feel anxious/nervous/scared/excited all at the same time. This is a life changing decision!
Ditto the above ^
Best of luck as you embark on your journey!
