Today's the day

Well, I'm scheduled for my sleeve at 7:15 this am. I'm excited and so very nervous. Not about the sleeve, just surgery in general; for some reason I just get very morbid any time I have to go under. It's irrational, I know probably 25 people who've had a wls and none have had any surgical complications. Ahh well, it'll be fine. Just took my "before" pics....I never feel as big as I look in pics, sometimes I forget I'm as big as I am, lol.

So, is there anyone else getting sleeved today?

Good luck!

I'm just pulling up to the hospital myself.

I think just because it's actual surgery is the fact that people (myself included) get nervous or a little worried.

God willing all will go smoothly and may we all have speedy recovers and transitions into our new lives

Not getting surgery till 8/25. But I am like you in the respect that I don't feel as big as I am. I wonder if most people with overweight people feel that way.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
