Sleep...yeah right, what's that, I have 53 hours to go...lol. I don't know why I didn't take this Mon and Tues off to prepare mentally...smh. I swear I will not be able to work but imma show up!

Nah don't feel that way. Express yourself but... just like you want to be excepted for how u choose to work your sleeve, it's best to accept that in others even if it opposes your beliefs. Hey I agree that one day I wanna let loose and feel free to do so, I just plan on maintaining for a while before I make small indulgences. But kudos to you, you've done a great job so far!!

I'm a ball of nerves...I've been having overactive anxiety issues for the first time since this process began. I have 3 more days. I pray for no complications and a stellar recovery for myself and all to follow..

Which hospital? I go in St. Agnes at 5:30a, surgery at 7:30a.

Haven't lost from the sleeve yet but my date is 4/23 and I have lost during my monitored diet and I say, when u finally have the energy to get up and do more... In the future, when I sit and my stomach doesn't take a seat in my lap...smh

I hear what you're saying but even if u choose to live differently, don't be a hater, just love ur choices and let others love theirs. I guess we realize we all got this way by bad habits so it just doesn't make sense to not change with our New bodies so we can care for it better. Those things u make sound so taboo are the perfect ingredients for a superior recovery and continued success with a new healthy body. If your overall goal is not health, just weight loss then you just don't have to work so hard. Lucky u and ur on ur way! But I've always wanted to be healthy and successful so I plan to follow at least the guildline rules as far as my personal goals are met. Good luck and better days to you...

I'm counting the hours and watching my ticker count down..Lol....let's go 4-23, I can't believe it's almost here after 8 long months.

I have a friend who wants to do this surgery but couldn't find a way to stop smoking with me when I did back in September. She will be paying cash and wants to know if anyone had serious complications after surgery due to continued use. Or if you did continue to use and were ok at the hospital but later had complications due to the smoke. Please help, she's in dire need as she prepares for her wedding this Christmas. Thanks all..

Can't wait to tell my recovery woes...4/23 can't come fast enough! Congrats to all fellow sleevers! Well wishes for speedy recoveries...

Ok New sleevers, can't wait any longer for the updates...I tried to let u all rest but enuff already...I'm dying to know how it went and how u feel!?!? Hope all is well...

being preop, this is scary but I like to be preventative myself even if the dr's dont tell me how to be...which is why I love this site so much...my supply list was long but I feel totally prepared for all possibilities and comfort issues, thanks to previous patient's and who better to learn from. So I'm just here to learn more...sorry you're in pain and I hope you get some answers soon here or there with your doc at least.
