Well , I am sitting here at 5am on the day of my surgery , still hoping that I am making the right decision ! You see, I love food ! Love parties where you eat two big plates of yummy appetizers , and thanksgiving when you eat till you can't move But, on the other side I hate being fat! I hate how I feel , I hate my joints hurting all the time ! And, I hate not being able to keep up with my basketball star 10yr old daughter ! So, will I miss the food YEP!! But, does the good out weigh the bad ! Most definitely ! Keep all of us getting sleeved today in your prayers!

You look amazing !! I am getting sleeved tomorrow and I am so nervous !!

I am tomorrow to in Kentucky ! I am there with you I keep thinking what the hell I am doing !!

Good luck to all my fellow June sleevers and God bless!!

I am scheduled for Thursday I am too nervous / scared/ excited/ all of that! Prayers to all my sleeve sisters!! May God lay his hands on our physicians and give us all excellent outcomes!

I am feeling your pain !! I am on day 6 my surgery is on June 6th I have been struggling too its REALLY hard ! I don't have any really good answers I mix powerade 0 orange with vanilla protein powder that's pretty good ! Sugar free Popsicles help too hang in there!!

I can't wait to be able to play basketball with my 10 yr old daughter ! Sleep well at night ! Feel like I am not a outcast because I am the only fat person on the room!!

I am having surgery at St Elizabeth in Edgewood on the 6th

What's a abdominal binder?? Do they give u one at the hospital or do u go buy it?

Prayers to all my fellow June sleevers !!! On my 5th day if my 10 day liquid diet!! Really hungry but hangin in there!! Surgery on Thursday in Northern Ky !!

I am June 6th too in Northern ky right across the river from Cincinnati Oh super excited and scared at the same time !! Day 3 of the pre op liquid diet it's REALLY hard for me!! Afraid most of all being nauseous the most. I don't deal with that too well

Today is my first day of my pre-op diet it's hard!! I hope it will get easier after days 3 or 4 !!

I hear all the post sleevers talking about sip, sip, sip. But , did anyone do well with crushed ice / ice chips?? It seem that u could get in fluids that way? Thoughts please. Thanks!

Thanks for the pictures! I get sleeved on June 6th and have been wanting to pick up the phone and cancel the surgery ever since I found out the date! But, NO I am going to go through with this and hopefully do as we'll as you!

I have a 10 yr old daughter and she hasn't ever known me as not fat! My surgery date is june 6 and I can't wait to be able to have that happen to me too ! It makes it all worth it!!

Got my surgery date !! It's official June 6th for me! Scared to death!! But oh so ready!

I will pray for you! I am scared too my surgery is June 3rd , I keep wanting to back out but then I tell myself that I have to do this !

I am June 3rd ! Very scared! Need my June buddies to help me !

I was just reading the article about Chris christy's lap band surgery on the yahoo home page . There were horrible comments calling people fatties and telling people to wire there mouths shut ect people that have never been overweight just don't get it! That article just made be sick!

Hey everyone thanks for all the great info on this site, I am being sleeved June 3rd! How is everyone that has to take Advil/ Aleve for pain like hip, knee, back ect.. I hurt everyday and am worried about how I am going to cope! Any ideas? Or things that have worked for you.

What kind of pain do u have? I have a bad knee, bilateral hip pain and hernated disc in my neck

My Dr had given me ultram for the bad pain, but I hope not to take it too often, I haven't tried pain patches There has to be a solution though?? I hope when I lose some weight my pain will get better.
