chibabyy 77 Posted July 8, 2013 When I was given a date to be sleeved in may 2013, I told them that it was impossible cos my coworker was on vacation that week. My dept is small and 2 people cannot be on vacation at the same time cos of coverage. The office manager just gave me the calendar and told me to pick a date suitable for me. I tried to avoid being sleeved on my birthday which is June 5th but on second thought, I told myself that this will be the best birthday present that I can give myself. Moreover, I will never forget that date. Yes, I spent my birthday under the knife but not cutting the cake. 1 Corky6984 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Melhendy 15 Posted July 8, 2013 Almost! My birthday was friday, the 5th and I am getting sleeved tomorrow. No cake for me, just my liquid shakes! I feel the same - it's a great way to start a new year with a new beginning! 1 dicoyte reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anjel76 0 Posted July 8, 2013 I was sleeved two days before my birthday! My surgery was on July 3rd. It was my birthday present to myself-- a healthier me. Just wish I felt better. Still feeling pretty crappy after surgery. I was sleeved on 07/03 as well...I'm also feeling pretty terrible. I'm better than I was but it's still just a lot to take in. I'm so sick of broth already that it literally makes me nauseous to smell it. Jello is getting old really fast too. And I'm itching...OMG my incisions are itching so bad! What's going on with u? Any of the same food aversions? What are u doing about it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any of the same food aversions? What are u doing about it? I am still pretty miserable. I just have no appetite. I am still pretty nauseas and really only getting Water in at this point. I probably got 1/2 Protein shake down throughout the day but that's it. I'm really hoping this gets better fast. I have three young kids and need to get back to work. Ah!
