kelseycakes20 110 Posted October 30, 2014 Yeah I know what you mean! It is going to be extremely hard in the beginning, we just have to stick through it! lol and to have this right before Thanksgiving is hard! Luckily, some of my family has gone through the surgery and they are extremely supportive of it my cousin who had her sleeve done last year in June said she's going to make me a pumpkin spice Protein Shake that she came across and she said the numbers are really good and healthy enough to have after surgery so I'm very appreciative that they are able to help make the transition a lot smoother than what I expected! Honestly my only real biggest fear with this surgery is going to be the loose, baggy skin. A lot of people have said since I'm younger that my skin will less likely be baggy. Other than that I'm super excited to have my surgery and I can't wait to be on the losers bench! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gardengirlnp 10 Posted October 31, 2014 Is anyone interested in a secret group on Facebook? I find FB easer to use then this app and it would be a great way to keep up with all November sleevers. Also secret groups are completely private so your FB friends will not see anything you post or even know that you are in the group.i am interested Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
