May 28 - 31st sleevers?

[Sh3iz 36]

Nervous doesn't even being to describe the feelings running thru me right now. Surgery in two days, I'll be leaving behind my 9 month old for the longest time so far. I know that this is for the best and for our future... But I'm very scared right now

I watched my grandson last night and when they got home he had 102 fever. He is still sick tonight. My surgery is Tuesday, I hope I don't get sick. I have been jumping threw hoops for this surgery, since last September. I do not want to wait one one day...LOL. I am so excited, but just now starting to get nervous. Cant wait for my NEW future!

Oh no. Hope your grandson is feeling better and def hope you don't get it. Stay well ????

I'm having surgery May 27 in Washington, DC. Getting really nervous but excited to begin my journey.

I'm so nervous that I have to pee at least every hour. I know this is TMI but I find it fascinating. Butterflies in my empty stomach constantly. I am blessed with a very supportive wife and kids. I don't know how some people can do this alone. My wife calms my worries, but they return.

I hear you all!! The closer Friday gets, the more nervous I get! Not gonna lie, I hope you you 27-29ers post in here after surgery and let us know how you are doing.

Trying to enjoy the last few days of food. I KNOW we will all eat again, and we will be able to eat anything we want, just in a smaller quantity. By the holidays, I bet most of us will be down 50-80lbs! Think on that everyone!

That concept, of being down 50-80lbs seems so surreal, but I got to admit that sounds awesome!

I agree, I hope we all keep in touch it will make the touch and go of recovery easier. Sharing the experience of babysteps and knowing that we are not alone will make it go by quicker.

I try not to think about it. I had the gastric band out in at removed after the port flipped sideways and they could not longer access it. The surgery itself isn't so scary. I trust my surgeon. The whole idea of staples and a stomach that has to heal and can't leak is what worries me. I can work through the pain- that is temporary. Love to keep in touch an see how everyone's makes out. I want to take before pics and a few measurements as well.

May 29 in Colorado Springs. Can't believe it is less than a week away and hope recovery goes well for all of us. We should keep this group together in the post-surgery forum.
