Lost1 27 Posted November 16, 2014 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lost1 27 Posted November 16, 2014 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkplaces 20 Posted November 16, 2014 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lost1 27 Posted November 16, 2014 They roll you in on a bed that lifts up. Then you slide onto the operation table with the assistance of nurses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
