Where are the November Sleevers?
christo5 replied to ToccoraVSG's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My sleeve experience was not what I was expecting. I had to stay in the hospital for 4 days after surgery, due to elevated heart rate and blood pressure. It was a side affect of anesthesia. I am home and enjoying my bed. Everyday it gets better. I am learning to eat with my new stomach. I can't seem to know when I am hungry or full from drinking liquids. I am so happy to be sleeved. Ready for the lbs to shed. -
I am tentatively scheduled for surgery November 2014. I have 4 more weight loss visits to complete. I am so excited and wait to loose this weight.

I am scheduled to be at the hospital in 2 hours for my procedure. So anxious and excited. Good luck to everyone who's big day is today.

I am 3 days away! Feeling really anxious. -
Yes, I told me husband he have to cook from this day going forward. I have 7 days left and its liquid only. Thanks for the advice. I have come to far and spent to much money. I will continue to pray and it will all work out. I know if will.

I am having issues following the pre-opt diet. I can't seem to shake this the hunger pains when night falls. I do good all day while at work, but the torture comes when I have to cook for my family in the evening. I am 7 days away from having surgery. I have only lost 2 pounds. Anyone else experiencing this?

Thanks everyone for the advice. I will make it through.

I am scheduled for the 21st and my pre-opt diet has been horrible at night. I do good all day until night when I have to cook for my family. I just start over everyday. My water intake is great! I just can't wait to be in the other side of this journey. -

@@devoted04 I have gallstones and recently had a gallbladder attack, plus I have an upset stomach and nausea every day. So my doctor says it needs to come out! I am okay with it, cause I wouldn't want to end up end the ER a few weeks out after Post opt and have to have emergency sergery to get the gallbladder removed. -
