jamiesdoingit 3 Posted July 31, 2014 Hi What procedure are you getting?: How long did the process take? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bpbqueen 45 Posted August 1, 2014 I'm having the sleeve. The process has been over a year for me because it's taking a long time to lose my 10% due to set backs in my weight loss. Once I buckled down in January to lose the weight I was able to drop the 44 lbs in 6 months (37 lbs. plus the extra I gained on top of what was required) and then the rest happened quickly the last 2 weeks. I have my pre-ops tomorrow and then I'm ready to go on the 13th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bpbqueen 45 Posted August 8, 2014 As I get closer I am getting more anxious and I'm not sleeping as much. Ack! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chasingpolaris321 214 Posted August 8, 2014 I go back and forth between excitement, dread, and terror haha! I am really ready but it's very overwhelming to think about possible complications and set-backs. At this point, I'm doing some deep breathing and reflection and telling myself that whatever happens will happen and I'm doing everything I can to live a better life! You will be okay! 1 bpbqueen reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
