African American Sleevers

[Mrsdw206 40]

whaaaat! i am terrified with so much anxiety. honestly im not nervous about the surgery im nervous about the healing and taking care of my 2 year old while me and my husband are separated right now. im scared of just everyday movement getting her dressed' date='giving her a bath, putting her in the car seat. she will be at day care all day and i have 3 weeks off of work which is good i just very ready and excited to heal and start really losing. pre op diet has me down 4 pounds so far but feeling weak with headaches.[/quote']

My preop diet is going well also...I can't wait to have this lap and removed. I also worried about the pain of everyday movement. Motherhood doesn't slow down so ill be right along with you doing laundry, being the mommy taxi, cooking, grocery shopping, and working. I'm hoping my body responds well so I can do everything that needs to be done. I'm planning to return to work 4 days postop. The journey begins soon.......YIKES!!!

Thanks Leleboo, I will go tomorrow for sure. The only thing is I don't like milk( no kind)... Is it good with Water...:-/

I didn't try with Water because it was a sample pack, but the good thing about the Vitamin Shoppe is if you don't like something after you tried it you can return it.

To all my AA brothas and sistas on this thread, I would like to wish all my upcoming November sleevers a safe and speedy recovery. Pray that any source of doubt, fear, and worry will be replaced with confidence, courage, faith, and happiness. I'm making room for all of us on the losers bench, including myself. 1 week from today I will be SLEEVED and ready to continue my journey to optimal health inside and out. You all have been a great support system these last few months of me joining the site and I do look forward to continuing this journey with you all. If anyone is on Youtube, I created a channel for my wls journey. Look me up at Challengemeverticaly...I'm still getting used to how youtube works...bare with me .

November 9th here I come!!!!
