August 2013 Roll Call

[kirstenb820 8]

aug 7th sleever here

We are in the same boat! Hopefully the recovery won't be too difficult. I am thinking 1week without kids, one week with them then Labor Day so a short week. By then we should be smooth sailing as far as recovery goes. I think you have an extra week in there but we got this! Good luck!

Hi everyone! Today is my last night before I begin my (pre) pre-op diet tomorrow (one day early), lol. I took my 5-year old son out to dinner. Now, I have a bottle of wine on chill to Celebrate my new beginnings. Pray for me!!! Lol :-)

Prayers are exactly what we need. Day one has been a killer. Hope and pray tomorrow is better. I plan to be out on the lake all day to keep my mind off of food. Good luck all.

My date is aug 26. I am so looking forward to leaving this prison behind. My body has become a prison. I want to be free to play, dance and sing.

My date is August 9th with Dr. Illan in Mexico, will I be seeing any of you there??

Also, it makes me happy that so many of you are getting sleeved August 19th. I'm biased because that's my birthday, but it's a pretty awesome date.

Well happy early birthday and congrats on your sleeve! And happy sleeve day to my fellow Aug 19 sleevers and myself! Lol

[serenity1959 67]

I can't believe that I will be getting on a plane THIS Friday and heading to San Diego, and then Mexicali on Sunday. Hope I don't forget anything important! The pre-op diet is going well, but I am losing slower than you liquid only gals, as my diet is high protein/low carb. But a loss is a loss!

[just breathe 2]

August 1st, whoohoo! I don't know if I'm counting down more to be done with the pre-op diet or to the surgery. lol. At least I feel like after the surgery I won't care about/want to eat. It is interesting, though, to be on a strict diet and knowing the end date, rather than trying to diet to get to a weight goal. Somehow, that makes it easier to follow and to remain positive. 4 more days, people!!!

[natynat22 95]

Aren't your nervous???? I'm August 1 too and I am freaking out.....I'm so scared!!!

[tmae1981 1]

August 22nd, I cannot wait!
