1Day1Life4Now 882 Posted February 9, 2014 You bet we're doing it!!! And we are going to look MAUVALOUS DAULING. Well, it might take 6 months but we will!! Sandy I'm so happy to hear you got a surgery date for this month. My date is tomorrow the 10th and I think there are quite a few of us having surgery tomorrow. I'm sure there will be wide range of experiences but I know we will all do well. Get started on all your pre-op stuff and I wish you lots of luck. 1 SandeeD reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarah Waring2014 25 Posted February 9, 2014 I am having a lot of overwhelming feelings and emotions anyone else? 2 SandeeD and Unbesleeveable reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SandeeD 363 Posted February 9, 2014 Absolutely Sarah! For one, my mom is driving me bananas! Everytime I speak to her it's an argument or close to it. It's her passive aggressive way of projecting her fears onto me but it's not gonna happen! She's asked me several times, "Aren't you scared?" I'm like really mom? My reply was, "I would be naïve and stupid NOT to be scared, but I'm more afraid of living the rest of my life in my current condition." It stopped her...for now:) If I have to have less and less communication with her for the next two weeks (during my pre-op diet), then so be it. Don't get me wrong, I love my mother more than life itself, but NOTHING and NO ONE will keep me from doing this FOR ME. 1 Unbesleeveable reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unbesleeveable 110 Posted February 10, 2014 Excitability is the major emotion that I am feeling these days. 18 days to go and I am sure the closer it gets, the more emotionally charged I will feel. I am having a lot of overwhelming feelings and emotions anyone else? 1 SandeeD reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HHHappy 225 Posted February 10, 2014 Good luck, y'all! I'm 3 days post and once I got off morphine, I was great! I had no issues with gas. Just a little nausea now and then. 1 Unbesleeveable reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unbesleeveable 110 Posted February 10, 2014 Good luck, y'all! I'm 3 days post and once I got off morphine, I was great! I had no issues with gas. Just a little nausea now and then. I do have a question as it seems that the posts in which I have been reading differ. Is there a requirement to have the shots(blood thinners to avoid clotting) post op? Congratulations on your sleeve, continued success on your journey It's sinking in ya'll, we're really doing this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aunt Gigi 0 Posted February 10, 2014 Hi there! Best of luck to you! My date is 2/24, so I am still 14 days away from my big day! I start liquid diet on Friday, and am kind of worried about being able to do that part. 10 days is a long time! But I am so excited and so committed to this that I hope to be able to sail through it with flying colors! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
