Getting Sleeved tomorrow - getting a little scared

[debking811 5]

I was sleeved in June and 37lbs down as of now it's the best thing I ever did..I feel wonderful..no more swollen ankles and I just bought 3 pr size 10 jeans..great feeling!

You will be just fine..and you def will have no regrets!! The worst part about the surgery is not eating and drinking at the same time but I always drank my iced tea after I ate anyways. I had the jitters prior to the surgery..heck we all do but again you will never regret it.

Hello Sleeve sisters,

Yes it all went well. Everything came out perfect. Had no reaction to the anesthetic or anything. Just a bit sore on my larger incision, but other than that im going wonderfully. Thank you all for your positive vibes. I truly appreciated them. :confused:

:confused: So they just called me from the hospital, and I need to be there at 7:45am. It has now gotten real to me. I am getting really scared now. Do I really want to do this? Will I make it out ALIVE? I'm psyching myself out I think. Ahhhhh I want to yell. I'm scared. All I can think about are my kids. :scared0: Any words of encouragement will help, I'm sure... AHHhhhhh:scared0:

I hope the best for you. I enjoyed reading your thread. I am getting so close to possibly getting a surgery date, only have my Psych. Eval. to turn in this week or so. The closer I get the more anxious I get. I even took one of my anxity pills last night, but I still am having a hard time with it. I am having a hard time getting sleep, I am thinking so much about it coming up soon and wondering if it will get approved soon. I am glad I read all about this happening to others, it helps me to understand why I have been so worked up here recently and can't hardly sleep. For anyone that has read any of my other posts, I changed my profile picture. This picture shows more of me and it really helps me want to go exercise at the Y every time I see it. I think you will agree with me that I really need this sleeve!!
