Hey Guys

[Letty1 33]

Hello, I'm new to the forum and excited to find AA Sleevers. I'm so nervous, I'm two months into my insurance required six supervised visits. I've finished labs, the sleep study and several x-rays. I'm excited nervous. I want to lose 20-30lbs before the surgery, unfortunately, it seems like that is the same 20-30lbs I've been trying to lose for the last five years. I have not shared that I'm having the surgery with my family, friends (except one), nor colleagues. I know I need the surgery, but apart of me wants to try it on my own one more time. I know insane, right?

Hi Everyone. I was on line checking out other sleevers' experiences before and after VSG and came across your site! I am abt to embark on my journey and will be having my surgery on December 11th! I'm excited about the prospects ahead; I feel that All doors have been opened for me by Father God and I will be skipping (well, not quite "skipping" yet (lol!) through the o.r. doors. And - the cream on top is that I have found this group and will look forward to sharing it with you all!

HeyKittKat!! You should be healing up right about now! How did the surgery go? Hope all is well with you sis..

My surgery went much better than I expected! I was up and walking the same day. I did a two night stay, then was released to go home. I was fortunate to not have any nausea or vomiting. I actually went back to work a week post op. I have a sit down job. I have absolutely no regrets. The only thing that I am tired of is the Protein Drinks. Ugh! I have to find a better way of getting it in. I cant stand the taste or smell anymore. Yuck!

Glad everything went smoothly for you! Keep us posted!

Hey Letty! No, I don't think you wanting to give it a try on your own once more is crazy. I think we all realize that the surgery in itself is such an extreme step, we almost try and talk ourselves out of it before going forward with it. If we could do it on our own there would be no need for the surgery. There's a reason why you've gotten this far...your doctors obviously agree that you need to have this done! Don't let the jitters scare you away from the new, healthy you. You deserve it. We all do! Good luck and keep us posted.

Hello everyone!! I finished my insurance requirements in Nov. and got my wls approval letter on 12/24. My first drs visit is 1/15. I was hoping for a january sleeve date but might not happen till february. Seeing as how I have to do a two week liquid diet right before the surgery I don't see january surgery date happening for me. But either way I am motivated and ready to get my surgery over with. I'm having my surgery done in Oxford, MS.

Any other MS sleevers out here?

Yeah that part is never easy, I had my surgery done a month prior to you so congrats on your new journey. What Protien shakes have you tried? The only one that I can tolerate is Atkins Advantage Cafe Carmel is my favorite

Hello everyone, I'm new to the group and as happy as a kid in a candy store because I found you!! I've enjoyed reading all the previous posts because they answered most of my questions. I started this process 3 times but always had to put it on hold due to family. I told my husband when I started it last Dec. that JESUS is the only way I'd quit this time. I'm very excited and looking forward to my new beginning, especially since it's on my daddy's birthday. I know he's smiling down on me.
