Mrs King

Interesting information!! Thank you for all of that - It should be an interesting adventure. I definitely should go home early tomorrow since our office bathroom is pretty far from my location...

@@lsereno Thank you for letting me know what to expect!! It helps a lot to be ready with knowledge from those who have gone through it.

Thank you for the insight. I've never had it so this is completely a new adventure for me. I will head your warning about being near a bathroom. Today and tomorrow I am on the liquid diet as well as having to take the liquid magnesium citrate... Hopefully since I won't have much to "move" in my system it won't be too harsh.

I'm from California - you??

Yay for June 6!! I live in CA - I'll be having the surgery in Marina Del Rey. What about you??

Ripper I'll be thinking of you as well!! I have a good feeling we are all going to have a lot of success!!

Erin from CA on Fri 6/6

I have my surgery on Friday too!! First time ever under the knife but I am super excited!

Congrats to you!! I am praying for complete success and an easy recovery for you!

Ooooops!! I meant June 6th

So I'm curious for all of those who are married or have significant others - what is the best way for them to support you during your gastric sleeve process? My husband is very excited for me and wants to be there as much as he can in any way that he possibly can. Does anyone have any experiences that would be helpful for him to relate to?

Yay for June 6!! I love in CA - I'll be having the surgery in Marina Del Rey. What about you??

I'm Friday June 5th!! Glad to be a part of the June sleevers!!

I'm having mine on June 6th so your post will be helpful the night before!! Congratulations on this amazing new journey!!

Chelenka - this advice is like gold to me. I literally read about a lot allowed to my husband and he was laughing at the pizza story which made me think he may have done that if I hadn't read the story. I love the idea of exercising together too I think that would be the best idea for both of us. Thank you so much for your experiences but I'm sure my husband has learned a lot as well.

Carlotta - wow I didn't even think of the reassurance when I lose the weight. Thank you for that. I would never ever want to make him feel like I would leave him just because I was getting a little bit more thin. He love me for 10 years before we got married and loved me even at my heaviest weight. He's definitely a keeper.

Thank you BigGirlPanties!! My husband is very very excited about my surgery but he just doesn't want to do anything that would be anything but supportive. His plan is to eat a little bit less too so that he can lose a little bit of weight in the process as well.

MissMe - wow your advice is invaluable. Thank you so much for your insight on the surgery I'm really excited now reading what you it said some of the tips you gave me. This is why sites like these are so helpful to new people or people that are a little bit timid about going to this process. People like you make it seem a little bit more real and help to give a helpful perspective on it. I definitely know there will be struggles post op but I also know that in the long run this is the best thing for me and definitely something that's going to help to create a healthy life for me. Thank you again for everything and congratulations on your 3 month celebration!!

Hi there Irene!! Thank you for the welcoming words!! I think the suggestion of patience is always a smart way to go. I definitely have the patience with the process. I'm just looking forward to it all coming together. I'm VERY excited to do it.

Jody - This is all GREAT advice for me!! I'm just so excited and look at this as a major tool in becoming a healthy version of me. Hearing how you have already lost 23 lbs is amazing to me!! Congratulations of your journey this far. I'm so grateful to meet people like you with such awesome experiences.

Thank you for the kind words!! And congrats to you as well!! I totally understand the being ready concept!! I'm not nervous, just excited!!
