Anyone in Colorado getting sleeved?



Recommended Posts

Hi there,

I am having surgery on Nov 24th. I was just wondering if anyone in Colorado is getting sleeved this month? I was originally having gastric bypass but my doctor encouraged me to get sleeved. So here I am.. Getting nervous... Days are flying by.

I love Dr. Chae. He is an awesome doctor! You're getting sleeved this week? You must be so excited to start your new life.

I am excited. Wish I could just fast forward the next two days :)

I am supprised I am doing so well actually. It hit home yesterday (after the final pre op appointment) that I am really getting this done. I sat down last night and wrote a bucket list of things being overweight has kept me from doing. Things like riding a roller coaster... I am looking forward to knocking everyone of those things of my list.

Please excuse me but I have a question about getting on the operating table,...how do they do it, you slide over or what??

If I was small ,no problem but like all of us just wondering, just say'n.

They roll you in on a bed that lifts up. Then you slide onto the operation table with the assistance of nurses. :D

      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.
