Hi everyone. I just joined this afternoon. This site seems to be amazing! I am having my sleeve surgery on 2/24/14, and am just so excited! I can't wait to start my new life! There is a little bit of nervousness and even some self doubt creeping in now that it is getting closer, but I know that I can do this, and do it well! That's all for now, just wanted to say hello to everyone!

Amen Art. My husband was so afraid he made me afraid! But all is well, about 2 months out, and so happy GG that we made this journey ours! You will love it here and the help is amazing. Just ask! Best of luck to you!

hi

Hi I'm in pre op stage. Nervous n scared, no surgery date as of yet. Florida man

Welcome to the forum. I had my surgery on 1/20 and am doing great. I was very nervous but it all was easy and the pain was well controlled. I spent a lot of time worrying for nothing. Now I am on the " losers bench " with only good things ahead. Good luck to you!

Hi Fred, my husband was scared to death, but I was more scared what would happen to him if he did not have the sleeve. We are both 2 months post op and extremely happy. I am off Metformin, and we are both off one BP med each, and both have lost over 40 lbs in 2 months. This surgery has been a Godsend. I don't know your age but I wish we had done this 10 years ago. Best wishes!!!

Wow, Thank you everyone for your kind words and your support! Congratulations to those of you who are already on your journey to a longer, healthier life, and to those of you who are counting the days until surgery (like I am), I wish you the very best of luck for a speedy recovery, and much much success! Thanks for making this newbie feel welcome!
