I'm getting sleeved April 13th. Yay!!! Just think of all the hard work to get you approved and that got your there. I don't know you but I'm proud of you for being where you're at. The nerves are normal. The doctor told me it's normal to have nerves up until the day of. Don't worry they'll give you something for the nerves the day of. You'll be fine. Good luck. Can't wait. Hope to hear back from you the day or 2 after surgery. Blessings to you!!

Good luck please let us know who your surgery went good luck

Hi Ladies,

I am a newbie here. I finally got through all my tests and clearance from insurance. I have a pre-op appt with my surgeon on April 3rd and that is when they will tell me my surgery date. They are planning for it to be in April too.

I am so nervous and excited at the same time. Anyone having second thoughts? I sometimes question myself but then I have to convince myself that I am doing good for my health. I have diabetes and bad joint pain.

Good luck to everyone who is getting sleeved next week.

:-)

Congrats! I am getting sleeved on April 13th. Pre op appt on april 4th. Currently on the liquid diet. Over 2 years ago I made the decision of wanting to get sleeved but I had some doubts like yourself. After several attempts of doing it without this tool they're giving us I couldn't get where I wanted. But I know after 2 years of thinking about it and going through all I went through I know I'm making the right decision. I also suffer from joint pain, also Migraines and degenerative disc disease. I can't wait to lose all this extra weight and get some relief. It's normal to feel how you're feeling. Remember you have til the day of surgery to change your mind if you aren't ready. Good luck and hope you find some peace of mind after reading several success stories.

      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.
