Hi, we are getting Sleeved the same day and I'm freaking out a bit also. I have no words of Wisdom to offer but I have had surgery before and the anesthesiologists are always very attentive they monitor everything to make sure you are comfortable and safe. Also the sleeve gastrectomy is a short 45 to 60 minute procedure (i know you know this, just a reminder) so you will not be under for a long time.

I hate getting put under, the surgery itself didn't scare me it was getting put to sleep. I had no issues though. The person that will put you under stays the whole time from the time they put you under till you are "woken up" you will do great!!

I'm on the 20th as well and I have pre-op tomorrow. I'm with you - pretty nervous. Every time I think about it my stomach lurches lol. I can't let my fear get the best of me though. I've come too far to back out now. I know we will all do great! Good luck to you! :)

Good luck to all of you. Wish I was that close to surgery date. I know you will all do good. I can only imagine that you are nervous as should be expected but on the other hand how exciting to know that you are getting ready to start a new chapter in your life.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
