Hi Everyone,

My name is Gina from NJ and I will be heading into Mexico on Nov 7th. I too have a countdown on my phone and just so excited to start this new beginning.

I chose the date because it is after my birthday (Oct 29th) and I can say that being 31 is going to rock as is every year there after! I also purchased a timeshare and I am just ready to be healthy, start vacationing and living my life. I did not vacation much before because being "fat" and a beach for me did not work nor going to amusement parks because I did not want the embarassement of not fitting on a ride. I am also looking forward to hopefully being able to conceive a child since I have not been able to thus far.

I think I am prepared for my journey to begin, I have stocked up on Unjury protien,some Isopure protien drinks and also a blender thingy to puree my foods when I get to that stage. I should be set for a little bit after I get home from surgery.

Lets count down them days my fellow November Sleevers!!!

Hi' date=' Nicole. I'm new here, too. I'm hoping to revise from LapBand to either the sleeve or the bypass. Are you having the bypass? If so, how did you make that decision. I had decided on the sleeve but then an endoscopy showed my esophagus to be like "ground hamburger" so I'm not thinking I should maybe go with the bypass since the sleeve can cause more reflux. I never thought I wanted a bypass because it seemed too extreme to me, but now I'm trying to come to grips with the possibility. Any thoughts would be appreciated![/quote']

I am actually having the sleeve. It's least intrusive than the bypass (in my opinion). And the lapband would be more time consuming to get it adjusted appropriately. I live about an hour n half from Vegas so I do not have the luxury of "running" off to Vegas everytime I needed an adjustment. I definitely have time for my appointments for the sleeve. After discussing and researching I've decided on the sleeve.
