OCTOBER 2011 SLEEVE ROSTER
Soon2BMiniMommy replied to Soon2BMiniMommy's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Good morning, Everyone! Boy, our month is filling up quick! We have a total of 33 now!!! I LOVE having you all here. This is so exciting we get to go on this journey together! I have friended everyone and I also added fatbetty, his2my2our4, Fusilli66, Free2B, mocha, and oknev. Welcome, guys!!! -
Joining the October Club! Oct 11 is my date!
Soon2BMiniMommy replied to Fusilli66's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Welcome, Fusilli!! So glad you're here! I cannot believe your doc has a 4-week pre op plan! Wow. Toture! But you are doing awesome, it sounds like and your body will most likely be in better shape than mine My surgeon only requires low-carb, low-fat for 2 weeks - no liquids. So weird how every surgeon is SO different! Had to laugh about the commercials and the drinking game That's funny! I've read that a lot on here....I'm sure I'll experience it after the surgery.....you'll be well prepared by then!!! -
October 27th is the day for ME!
Soon2BMiniMommy replied to skinnynursebetty's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hey, Betty!! SOOO glad you're here with us! I agree that waiting is so hard! I've been obsessing over this since February! Course, now that it's scheduled, and I see some of our siblings scheduled for the 3rd and 4th, I feel nervous for them, lol! I am normally a very calm person, but I know I'm gonna freak out a bit as my date approaches. Welcome! -

OCTOBER 19TH APPROVED YEAH
Soon2BMiniMommy replied to SmokyMtnGal2011's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Dang, Girl! How on earth have you lost 52 pounds so far! Good for you!!! That's awesome! What a great start!! I made some homemade beef and turkey broth and froze it it little one-cup containers I also have baby spoons and forks from my 2 year old! And i need to go out and get little half-cup dishes. I also want a mug warmer for my desk when I come back to work on pureeds so I can drink my strained Soups slowly without them getting cold before I can finish them! I also have to get SF popsicles, Gatorades, etc. Oh, and a good Protein drink, too. Probably vanilla so I can mix it with everything. My mom already got me a Magic Bullet, bless her little :heart:. Oh, and I got a Tervis Tumbler from Bed Bath and Beyond.....those ROCK!! Getting so close. I have to admit, my tummy has butterflies for our sisters who have their surgery on the 3rd/4th. Thought I was all prepared after this looooonnnng journey, but then I realized if that was me, I'd have the jitters.....and I'm a tough nut, as my hubby says!! -
Hang in there, Missy....I've heard day 3 is the worst, then it gets better/easier after that.....
-
Welcome, 5! So glad you are here! How is the pre-op diet going? All liquids, or does your doc allow some food? You hanging in there? I've heard day 3 is the worst.

This is our time! Yay us!
Soon2BMiniMommy replied to Holiday's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Thanks, Holiday! Good luck with the diet...let us know how you are doing....hang in there and be strong!! -
Hey, Pixie and Courtines! Welcome, welcome, welcome to our little club! Wow, a lot of us on the 10th! Soooooo excited for us all :cheer2: I can't wait to follow your journeys! We all have to be sure to come back and let the others know how you're doing, what you're going through, etc. It will keep those of us that are later in the month sane!!

OMG Lisa, my turkey dinner was AMAZING, lol! I am still eating turkey sammiches and I made a big pot of soup and broth to freeze for later! I'm glad I got it out of my system. Now i won't be all forlorn on Thanksgiving when everyone is gorging themselves...I can have my baby plate, a few bites, and I'll be just fine!

October 18th!!! My new birthdate!
Soon2BMiniMommy replied to Sleevie WonderLand's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
So glad you joined us, Kay! I have to admit, the nana with the boobs totally made me laugh out loud!!! So exciting! You are only two days before me...I'm on the 20th! Like you, I've been so obsessed with the surgery, but it's been over 6 months for me....will be so glad when the waiting is over and we'll be on the other side! I don't have to do a preop diet, either, but I'm going to do a quasi one. The more I can help my surgeon, the better off I'll be!! So 'cited for all of us!! -
Welcome, Tiny!! So glad you are here and part of our group!! I'm getting nervous and my surgery is on the 20th.....phew the, 3rd!! I have butterflies for you! But I know it's all SO worth it....it will be exciting to follow your journey and then have you there for advice when us later-in-the-months have our surgery! What are you doing to prepare? I have to admit, I made a big turkey dinner this last Saturday to get my holiday joneses out, lol!!! It was SOOOOOO good, and it's in plenty of time before my pre-oop diet. And I made a bunch of homemade turkey broth/soup to freeze for later! And mashed potatoes and gravy to freeze for the mushy stage!

This is our time! Yay us!
Soon2BMiniMommy replied to Holiday's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hey, guys! So i've seen a couple of the Youtube 'chronicles'. Which ones are your favorites? I'd like to find a good one to start with and follow...some of the ones I've seen haven't been very helpful, but I know there are tons out there! Any suggestions would be great! A couple more days closer!! Whoo hooo!! -

Hi, everybody!!! So I just moved over here after saying goodbye to my Sept Sleevers. Was pretty active on that board until I found out yesterday my surgery will be October 14! Sucks I have to wait even longer, but at least it's still close!! Can't wait to get to you know you all and begin our journeys together!!

That's hilarious.....know why? I"m making a turkey dinner this weekend That's right, with all the trimmings, lol!! I thought and thought and thought over these past 6-7 months what I would REALLY miss when it came to food....would I miss eating half a pizza? Nope. Would I miss eating a cheeseburger and fries? Nope. Would I miss cheesecake and Cookies? Nope. But what I would miss was eating Thanksgiving dinner, then going back to nibble at the turkey, and the turkey bun sammiches the next couple of days. Sooooo......this weekend is it. My very last hurrah. I don't believe in the last supper syndrome...I will be good for the two weeks before my surgery, and have been pretty much good for over six months, but I do want my turkey dinner!! I know I'll be able to have a little bit come Thanksgiving, but not much at all, probably just a couple of bites, but now I know I'll be okay with it!! And next year, I'll be able to 'normal' just a lot less. My hubby is happy because he will get two Thanksgiving's this year
