Hello All, My name is Ciara and I am getting sleeved on June 4, 2015. I am nervous and excited at the same time. I plan to start my liquid diet a week early which means I will be starting it this weekend! AHH ???? If you have any suggestions for me about what to buy, what to bring to the hospital that would be great. On my pre-op liquid diet I am allowed to have Protein shakes and one small meal with a cooked vegetable at dinner. The day before only Clear liquids. I am going to try my hardest to get through this phase with prayer..I need this second chance at life. If you are in Ohio feel free to message me! Maybe we can all have a meet up one day. Also feel free to follow my journey on IG @soon2bsleevedqt. Good luck on your journey!

@@NurseT01 I sent you a DM. I wonder if we are in the same city?

@@jane13 awesome! I am glad things are going well for you. I will do exactly what they tell me. I want things to go smoothly!

Hello! My surgeon stated he will keep me off anywhere from 4-6 weeks minimum. He wants to allow time for proper healing, follow up appointments and adjustments to my eating habits. I say file for FLMA and short term disability if you have it. Your surgeons office will fill out all of the paperwork for you. Whatever you do, listen to your body and if you don't feel ready to return when scheduled don't. Good luck with your surgery!!!

Hello! I just got my date and I am getting sleeved on June 4th 2015. The wait is killing me but I am using the time to prepare. I notice myself getting a little anxious lol. Big adjustment coming! We got this!
