    compression shorts/capris

    http://www.abigattitude.com/mobile/Product.aspx?ProductCode=4445blk Love these! They are tight and help control jiggling. High waisted to cover the rolls and help flatten the fat. They do not roll or ride up. I wear them under loose exercise pants and it makes me feel good not to jiggle in exercise class. Love love them!!! So worth the money.

    May 28 - 31st sleevers?

    May 27th (gulp...tomorrow) in Central NJ.
  3. Bellini...how much are they charging your insurance company for the scar cream? Check an EOB statement. I heard it is close to $5000! Watch your pharmacy max if you have one!

    Incisions

    I can shower 2 days after surgery without wraps of any sort. I specifically remember the nurse in our preop class said we could swim 2 weeks post op. But again....depends on how you heal.

    Newbie Here - Hi

    I was nervous about the EGD too. However it flew by with no problems. The sedation drugs are great!! One minute you are awake and the next minute you have completed the procedure and do not remember a thing. I was nervous for nothing. And then you get to go home and take a long wonderful nap!

    Any May 2014 Sleevers

    My surgery is May 27th. I am glad my doctor put me on a two-week pre op diet. I got the caffeine headache over with. I got the head hungry over with. It took me 4 days to detox from all the crappy food. The 5th day and on i have felt sooo much better. I am ready to rock the sleeve.

    Will do dsmith_rn. My starting weight is 330 at 5'8" so I expect to lose a lot with a lot of hard work. I think I will have a hard time getting rid of all my outgrown clothes. I am so used to putting them in storage bins in the basement only to pull them out again when I regain the weight.

    50 lbs down pre-op

    Fabulous! When is your surgery date?

    I am a RN too but currently a SAHM. I am having the sleeve on May 27th. I am currently on the preop diet. I cannot believe that 3 months has gone by already since I went to the first information meeting. Time flies by.
