Shes-sleeved & Lynne1029 and everyone else I wish you the very best. Healthy recovery, no complications and wonderful weight loss! My surgery is on April 11th...been so sick to my tummy, so nervous but because of this forum and because of you (the person reading this) I know I have made the right decision. God bless you and thank you!

You'll see me...I'll be the very short one.....lol! Who is your doc?

Hi TenderTummy - who was your doctor at Mi Doctor? I'm going Friday 4/11 and would like to know as much as possible. How many days did you have your drain in? How was your pain level? Were you nervous? Any extra fees? Thanks!!!

Definitely saying a prayer for you. Take a deep breath - you ARE going to be fine! Best wishes and thoughts for you.

Hi- If anyone has a copy of a Patient to Nurse / English to Spanish guide from Mi Doctor Hospital to share, please do. I've been searching and can't find one, please help. Thanks!!!

Did you/ are you planning to drink any alcohol before you start your pre-op diet?

I'm a shorty too and my weight is 192!! I hope I do as well (or close to) as you! You look amazing!!!!

andieinwa Yay! I'm so excited for you and your husband! I'll be thinking of you both and praying for you.....!

You'll do great! Congrats!

I'm not telling anyone other than my husband and son. I am very private person and certainly don't want to tell those overly nosey gossiping vultures at my office. Government job and all they do is talk talk talk (just like most places) about each other behind their backs and about every little thing. Plus I don't want anyone's opinion or trying to change my mind, this decision has taken me years to finally do so it's my personal business!

Hi I am going to Dr Cabrera on the 11th Can you share any info on your experience? Thank you!!!

Please share your experience with Dr Cabrera (I'm going on the 11th)! Thanks

I start the liquid diet on the 4th also...my surgery is the 11th. Weird thing - I have no appetite (last 5 days), and I was planning my food funerals!

Two weeks from today...April 11th...yikes! I am so scared.

Sorry, I was asking janarae.... :-)

Thank you!!!

I am going to Dr Cabrera - can you share more about your experience?

LV here...how are you doing now?

I am getting so nervous. 1 week from today, I start my pre-op diet and only 14 days until I get sleeved. I am so scared.

THANK YOU JOANNA!! I think you and I may run into each other, right? I'm there April 10th - 15th. Again, thank you!!!

Hi Linda- Wishing you all the best & a very smooth recovery. Please let us know how you are doing and how your experience is/was....

Congrats on your surgery and will pray for your healthy recovery!

I just decided to keep very busy during this 2 weeks and I know my family will understand. My husband and son are in to bodybuilding and they have warned me about the first few days. I am determined to stay positive. I wish you the best! I am going to make the same promise, I AM GOING TO STAY POSITIVE!!!

I wish I cud do your pre-op....that really isn't terrible. Good luck with everything!

Thank you for this post!
