Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

ARE THERE ANY OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2015 SLEEVERS OUT THERE?



Recommended Posts

I invited you both via email! Let me know if it works! Introduce yourselves once you get to the group so everyone can say hello :) We are going to close the FB group when we get to 30 or so (we're at 18 now).

I never got the invitation. Can you pm me the name of the group so I can try to find it? Or I can give you my account info instead of just my email addy. Thank you so much!

Hi there! I got a date of November 19th! Working on pre op scope and sleep study and the rest of my nutritional meetings. I only have 2 of those left. I live in Pittsburgh PA!

We are date twins!! I'd love to keep in touch. I'm keeping it relatively secret so I don't have a ton of support. I'm in CT.

The Facebook group is set to "secret" so no one can find it. You need to be invited via email (send me to me through a personal message, easier for me to keep track of it!). If I told you that I sent you an email and you didn't get it, the only way to add you is for me to friend you on FB and then to add you that way (then to unfriend you because I'm crazy about who I have as friends on FB... no hard feelings :)

So, send me a message with your email address or, if that didn't work, your name on FB so I can Friend you! :)

We're going to limit our group to about 30 so it doesn't get all crazy and dramatic... we are at 20 now so if you want in, get back to me :) It's a GREAT group so far, we have a lot of good discussions about weight/food related stuff and other life stuff too!

I'm on track right now for late October / early November. My surgeon will be Dr. Nwanguma, at The Medical Center in Bowling Green, KY. I'm new to the forum...first time posting in fact! I'd love to have someone to talk to that's going through this at the same time.

Hi Cindy. I am on track for an October /November surgery and am in Huntington WV. Not too far from bowling green, lol. I am super excited. Feel free to chat if you like.

I'm glad to see so many Fall surgery buddies! :) I have had a little glitch, had a shadow on my nuclear stress test from cardilogist. I only had the stress test because I have some chest aches, I don't think they do it routinely? Anyway, now I have to have a cardiac cath on 9/15 to make sure it's nothing. Apparently, it could be a shadow from big boobs - go figure!! Hoping it's nothing so I can schedule my gastro EGD right afterwards and keep my November 4 surgery date!!!

Someone from one of the Facebook boards started a Fall 2015 Sleevers Facebook board. If you're interested in joining, let me know. It's a secret group so I think I need your email address to add you.

Good luck to everyone!!!!! It's going to be a fun Fall/Winter and hopefully a skinny spring :)

Hi there! I'm new here but would love to be a part of the fb group. My surgery is tentatively October / November. My email is coyote211979@gmail.com

Jennifer, I got your email and have tried to join. Got a message that said that the content is unavailable? BTW, I am not very skilled at FB. I signed up for it for the sole purpose of connecting with others for WLS support.

I'm October 5.

I would already have this behind me, except for the fact that when I went to check in for surgery this past Monday, 8/24, I had quite a bad sore throat and a low-grade fever. The anesthesiologist said no way would he proceed. So I went home.

I am feeling tired, deflated, and using food as a drug again. I spent 2 weeks on liquid Protein and then 2 days on clear. Was literally starving by the end...and so ready for the surgery but...so I'm on the rebound. Don't know how to get my excitement for this and mojo back!

I'm so sorry that happened to you! Of course safety is their #1priority, but I would be bummed too. Hopefully the next month or so goes by very quickly and before you know it, you will have your brand new sleeve. Just keep your eye on the prize! :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
