mytime2shine 229 Posted March 21, 2013 You could 'What if...' about anything. Not to sound pessimistic but you dont have to have surgery for a medical emergency to occur. I would plan on cruising and CELEBRATING life after your surgery. Go on that cruise living your dream not planning it! Best of luck in whatever decision YOU choose!

@RealScoobyDoo 94 Posted March 21, 2013 I'm having sleeve surgery March 29 and am going on a cruise with my partner and 4 little boys May 6-10. I could have done the sleeve after the cruise, but I knew I would eat like a piggie and feel like crap. Now I'm down 9 pounds after startng the preop diet with a week to go. So maybe by cruise time I'll be down 20 pounds or so. That would feel amazing. Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
