March 2010 Sleevers

[4re4me 1]

Any March 2010 Sleevers out there? I was a May 2007 LAPBANDER but had revision surgery on March 10th and joined your club. The band was pretty cool but we just didnt get along. Any other revisions in March?

I'm scheduled for surgery on March 25th and it can't get here quick enough! I'm on day 4 of preop diet! I have weaknesses where I want to cry because I want to eat "with a fork" and there are times when I'm feeling strong and I know I can do this!

I was scheduled for March 17. I got a call at the beginning of the month to see if I would be OK moving it up to March 10th. I was thrilled. I really wanted to get on the other side of this thing. Day 4 and I am feeling fine.

Today was the first day that I weighed in less then I did on surgery day. Go figure. I went to my sons basketball game today with no problems. I am expecting to be back at work (desk job mostly) by mid week. Good luck with your upcomind dates.

That is wonderful! So glad you are recovering so nicely!

I'm so excited. I wish my date would fly by to get here!

I had my surgery 7 days ago. Those first 2 days were pretty tough but today I feel pretty good and will be returning to work tomorrow. I am now looking forward for this week to be gone so I can start on soft foods.

Hey all! I am getting sleeved March 25th with Dr. Aceves. I am so excited. Its been interesting as I get closer to see what things are causing anxiety in me, and how there are some BIG lessons I need to learn. I have to keep in perspective just how exciting it is to be so close to such a huge life change. I'm so excited. We're on our way. Go us!!!

I get sleeved tomorrow 3/16. I fly out this morning for San Diego. I am feeling confident this is the right for me. I hope to be at goal by summer 35lbs. (Gained a total of 5 # post fill and 5# the last few months.) I lost with the lap-band but we just cannot live together! Thank you everyone on this board for ALL the encouragement.:smile:

On to the second career (first being professional dieter)

My date is Wednesday, March 17. Can. Not. Wait!!!

Still not anxious at all about the surgery. Just anxious about getting from here to there. I have to work tomorrow and Tuesday, plus I have a midterm exam on Tuesday evening. So I will be very glad when it's time to drink the magnesium citrate and relax! LOL

Feeling great 5 days post-op. Going to pop into work for a few hours tomorrow. Really think this VSG will do what my band and I could not. Good luck to you all. Should be a great trip with all of you.

Okay, I was am doing 2 weeks preop liquid diet. I am freaking out. I have been going for 6 days and have done quite well. (I'm down 7 lbs as of yesterday.) Only right now all I can think of is eating a burger. Just one burger, oh and fries, and a diet coke. Okay focus, focus, focus!

STEP AWAY from the Burger........LOL

Girl you CAN do this! It will be so worth it in the long run. Find something to keep you busy or maybe just go to bed. Go take a relaxing bubble bath anything to get your mind off of it. I had to drive my kids to Burger King last night because my hubby was sick and I refuse to cook right now. I swear that was the hardest trip to make but I did it and didn't order a thing. Text me if you need to vent. I think you have my #.
