Debbie623 65 Posted June 7, 2015 I am scheduled for gastric sleeve on June 23. I don't know anyone who has been down this road. I am very stressed. Can anyone be a support pal? Anyone else having surgery soon and is also stressed? How do I get past the stress? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swimbikerun 1,046 Posted June 7, 2015 Does your surgeon not have a support group? What about the psych exam? Have you contacted one for that? There are many ways already listed: exercise, eating better, sleeping better, do you spend time with family, friends, doing activities that aren't stressful? Prayer, meditation? All those things help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wascott 395 Posted June 11, 2015 I'm being sleeved on the 22nd. I'm a bit nervous but I know I'll be better off once I get my weight down. I'm currently on day 4 of the liquid pre-op diet. Looking forward to being past this stage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
