Nene16 0 Posted July 21, 2010 Hi Ladies! No date yet, but I'm on schedule and it should be approved for early September. Anxious. I have not been able to lose my "mandatory" weight. Its not even a lot. But, I went through the eat now before surgery urges. Yikes! Its been hard, but now in the mode to get it done. GOOD LUCK to all of us. It is our destiny to be healthier.

StaySea 2 Posted July 27, 2010 Hello! I am new here and officially began my sleeve journey today with my consult with my surgeon. I am living and working in Taipei, Taiwan so I am having my surgery done here (cheaper then in the US too). Looking at a late August or anytime in September surgery date (no red tape of 6 months proven failed attempts or classes here....National Health Care FTW!) :thumbup: As this becomes a reality I do feel some nerves setting in that "are you sure you are ready for this" feeling but I know this is my only way to healthier and happier me!

determined1 3 Posted July 27, 2010 Congrats on your dates! Right now, I'm trying to visualize me going in on surgery morning and being calm. I've heard that you should work out your lungs before surgery by blowing up small size balloons, once you blow them up, throw em away and keep doing this-a anestetheologist recommended that... So just to be safe, why not? Share what's going thru your minds at this time... We are not alone in this~:001_smile: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
