Merry1 45 Posted October 12, 2013 I am due to get sleeved on 21st October .. I live in Australia. I am excited about my journey to good health but so scared of the surgery!!! Hi Missy, I live on the Central Coast NSW had my surgery done five days ago. Honestly I would have to say the surgery itself has been the easiest part, virtually no pain apart from those in my shoulders and under my ribs from the gas and they soon go if you get up and move around a bit. I started at 133.5 kg and am looking forward with fingers crossed for my first weigh in on Tuesday. I really am only a short step ahead of you but I am happy to answer any question I can, good luck with your op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well' date=' off to the gym and a long walk I go.[/quote']You sound like me! I just had surgery on the 7th. I was cleaning everything I could find Saturday to that Sunday. I made sure the fridge was stocked with plenty of things I need and my family as well! Best of luck and pray you have a painless recovery like I have had! I am just a little sore but moving around fine. Edited October 12, 2013 by Davalrie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oklahomagirl 0 Posted October 13, 2013 My surgery is scheduled 10/22. I am very nervous and finding that I am eating like food will disappear on 10/22. Any suggestions for me ya'll? My surgery is scheduled for 10/22 also! As far as food goes, I made a food bucket list! lol Probably not very wise but I want to eat all my favorite foods before surgery! I start my liquid diet on 10/15 and I'm getting sooo nervous! Good Luck to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SouthernFirefly 3 Posted October 14, 2013 October 9th surgery, so 5 days out, and so far doing great I think. I only have one problem and that's a headache in middle of night, but I am thinking it's dehydration so I am trying to drink more during day. Is anyone else having trouble with getting in enough fluids during the day? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
