My date is October 14th in Massachusetts. I am quite ready for this! I am an elementary school teacher and still undecided as to how much time I should take off.

You usually can't lift anything over 10-15 pounds for 4-6 weeks. So depends on your doc and work

Hi everyone , I'm getting the sleeve on October 18th . And I was told the sleeve doesn't help people with acid reflux , for some reason the doctor decided for sleeve . Does anyone know if the acid reflux could get better or worse with the sleeve ? Thank you

@@vivi16 It depends on the cause of the acid reflux. Do you have a hiatal hernia that will be repaired at the same time? If so - that's probably what's causing the reflux. I have mild reflux (based on my GI Study) and having the Sleeve. My Dr felt there would be no issues. I'm also on the 18th!! good luck!

@@SAL421 It's common to get cold feet. This is a huge decision. I think if you remember the reasons why you started on this journey you'll realize it is the right decision - but only you can decide. I'm scheduled in 20 days and know it's the only decision for me! I have to do it for my health.
