@@sbrainwater you summed it up. I was too tickled reading your post. What I have tried to do is take a break from researching any information in regards to the procedure because my "what ifs" kick in. My surgery date is December 8th and the closer it gets the more my emotions run wild. Wishing everyone the best!!!!

It's going to be awesome. Lord please get back on here ASAP after surgery and let us know you did, how bad your gas is, etc. I can't wait!!!

@@fatcinderellasball We are having surgery on the same day!!! Good luck to you and we will have to keep in touch afterward!!!

I am also December 8th, 2015! Congrats and good luck!!!
29 days to go!! 12/08/2015, here we come. Are you feeling ready @@lesley_vsg and @@tera1982 ?
I am nervous(I've had surgery before, but anesthesia is always worrisome; I am only mildly worried about pain; concerned about my diabetes and how it's going to react to my new sleeve(I am a type-1 diabetic on an insulin pump); and also about hair loss as I already have fine, thinning hair although I hear as long as I get all of my Protein and fluids, it SHOULD be minimal-per my NUT). Other than that, lol, I am super excited and ready for the next stage of my life, hopefully a healthier, thinner stage!????
I'm worried about Hair loss too, as I already have thin hair. I have started Biotin supplements already, since I heard they work best before the hair starts thinning. Hopefully it makes a difference. Plus all Protein and fluids like you said!

I did read about some Shampoo that really helps with hair loss. I don't remember what it is but I will start hunting on this site. Btw I am looking on Groupn daily for hair extensions just in case it starts to get embarrassing. I know I'm vain but I just want to be really prepared!

I met with the Dr. yesterday and started my liver reduction diet today. I am tentatively scheduled for Dec 15 - hopefully the pre-certification from the insurance will not delay it.

I will be missing Thanksgiving and Christmas goodies this year, but I am thinking about all of the many wonderful holidays I will have with my family in the future!

I'm getting surgery December 29th. Not super excited about having to go on a liquid diet for Christmas, but I'll manage it because nothing makes me more excited than thinking about getting surgery!!!
