I am 3 days almost 4 post op. My family just left today to Disneyland. I feel SO depressed. I wish I hadn't made this decision. I feel so lonely. I don't feel well at all & feel so lightheaded & faint. I don't know what to do with myself anymore. My mother had offered to stay behind with me but I know she needed this break. I have to fight my tears when they call. I know I sound so childish but I'm not sure I made the right choice. I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!

The ladies above me who has their surgeries a few days ago and had all the nausea, I felt like I was the only one. My Dr has also decided to keep me another day because I was vomiting blood quite a bit yesterday. He said that was normal. & today I am still extremely nauseous. One of you mentioned taking a sip of water & feeling like your going to throw up! I had the same experience. & it was the smallest, tiniest sip. I haven't been able to take my oral medication & my Dr says I need to be able to so that before I can be discharged. I have noticed that I have become extremely sensitive to the smell of most foods. I kicked my mom out of the room when she brought in take out! But anyway, I hope you ladies feel better & all the rest of you June Sleevers. Remember this is just MY experience as of 1 day post op.

How are all of you early June Sleevers doing??? Are you June 5th Sleevers ready? I'm SO ready to get this over with. Not looking forward to any pain but, no pain no gain, or lose in this case I guess. Well, good look to everyone!

How are all you early June Sleevers doing??? I hope your doing great! & are having a quick & easy recovery. Let us all know on the Post op June Sleevers post!

Mrs King, I'm also June 5th but that's a Thursday. Freaked out for a bit. Just wanted to let you know incase you are planning for a Friday date. But I'm not so nervous yet. Or excited. I just want the day to come. I want to be done with it so I can start with this new life I have been waiting for. Congrats to all us June Sleevers!

I am also June 5th! I am not nervous YET! I am not excited YET! I'm just hoping everything runs smoothly. Want to get it over with. Not looking forward to any gas discomfort that I've seen mentioned a lot. Well, Good look to all of us!

It's June everyone! How are all of you feeling? You ready? Anxious? Some of us are this week & some have a few more weeks to go but, none the less, it's OUR month. We have been waiting so long for June to come along and now it is here. Can't wait to read about all of you, post op!

Does anyone know if Insurenutrition.com is covered through Kaiser Northern Health Plan? I've just heard that Kaiser is usually very strict & doesn't cover anything that isn't directly from Kaiser, if that makes any sense.

All of you are absolutely correct! It does bother me when she says it's the easy way out. She doesn't realize that I'm changing my relationship with food forever & that is absolutely difficult. Adding exercise into my daily routine is a challenge because it wasn't a part of my life beforehand. Changing my way of thinking and how I see food, exercise and my relationship with other will change. But she won't take the time to acknowledge that because she doesn't want to know and that's okay. Nobody has to agree with my decision to have this surgery done because I have made that choice for myself. She has the right to her opinion, I know, but if it's something negative I really don't need it. Thank you all for your kind words and helping me see that not everyone will agree with my choice to better my life. I REALLY appreciate it.

Congrats to all you ladies. Each day is one step closer to beginning a whole other chapter of our lives. I'm so excited. I don't see my surgeon again until May 27th which is when he will let me know what kind of preop diet I will be placed on.

So I told my cousin I was getting this surgery done & she flat out said how stupid I'm being & how all I need to do is exercise & eat healthier. What I find funny is she is overweight herself & is criticizing me & my choice to become healthier. I've struggled with weight issues since a child & so has she, so for her to tell me that.. Really pisses me off. I told her maybe I should try another diet pill or two & see if that worked then gain the weight back just like her. All she said was "well it works I'm not that big!" I don't want to say she is "Jealous" but it feels like it everytime the topic is brought up. She is one of my closest cousins but has always been very greedy & self absorbed but she is my cousin. I know I don't need her approval or anything it's just very irritating to hear her negativy. I gues she just won't hear anymore about it even though she is the one to ask all the time. Anybody else have someone like this around? Luckily another cousin of mine has had the lap band surgery & is completely supportive & has been successful! So I guess it sort of balances out..

Yaay! So excited for us. It does feel like it's forever & a day away but I'm sure the time will go by very quickly. Are you ladies nervous yet? Excited? Have you started taking your vitamins? Trying protein drinks, shakes, powders? I've started on vitamins but not protein yet. I need to do that ASAP! I'm excited for JUNE this year! Hopefully I won't have to cover up under so much clothes this summer.

I couldn't find a June Sleevers forum. If there is one already please direct me! Well anyway, I'm glad excited that I finally got a date, June 5th. I really wanted it to be sometime during the end of May but that didn't happen. My family will be going out of town, to Disney to be specific, a few days after my surgery because my cousin from Mexico will be making his fist trip here. I'm so sad I won't be joining them but my parents keep telling me I need to look at the bigger picture, or should I say smaller. Haha. I have my preop appointment May 27th. I'm curious as to what kind of diet he will put me on! I'm just excited to get this going! So who else has a June Date? Who is hoping for a June Date? Are you ready yet? Nervous? Excited?
