Thanks change within......I keep telling myself that. I am excited, but nervous. When will you be getting sleeved?

[changewithin 16]

I am at the start of the process where I have just decided I want the procedure. I am lost on how to go about making it happen

Hi jewels1227! I'm a new member on this site and my sleeve is also tomorrow. Not nervous yet but trying to keep myself occupied today so I don't have to think about it. I'm on a clear liquid diet today which makes me WANT to eat something....just because I can't!! Good luck to you, hope all goes well!

Hey, Diane311. This forum is excellent...I am waiting on the phone call to tell me the time! We are sleeve buddies....lets stay connected....

@Changefromwithin.find a hospital or doctor that will do the surgery and make a appointment. At that appointment they will discuss your next steps. Most doctors that specialize already have everything mapped out for you. I started my process last year in November, and they had a waiting list. So now I am getting sleeved tommorrow. Depending on your insurance and the doctor you get to do it it could be quicker...make sure you do all of your research FIRST!

Good luck and I am here if you need any assistance!

So excited for y'all! I was sleeved two weeks ago today and it's amazing!! I've already lost about 20 lbs... I was feeling the same thing you guys were the day before! Very anxious but it's so easy! The pain varies from person to person but I was off pain meds in 4 days and back running a normal life by day 4/5!! You'll do Great! The mental hunger is the most challenging part of it.. But I'm learning slowly but surely it's still a journey!! But sooo worth it!! You will start to feel amazing in no time

[Diane311 6]

That's great Shelbym! And thanks for the encouragement!!
