Calling all October sleevers!!

[newyearnewme17 10]

I’m scheduled for 10/20 (which is also my birthday!) I’m still waiting on insurance approval, so I’m a little worried about that. I should hear back next week. I’ve been doing a ton of reading and research and I feel pretty prepared, although I’m still nervous as heck. I’ll probably panic once it’s actually time. But for now I’m okay. Just ready to get this over with so I can start my new life!

I'm scheduled for Oct 24th. I feel like these next two weeks are going to drag because of my anticipation for this surgery. I started this entire process in January of this year and after 10 months I am beyond ready to get this journey started. I love this site, it has so much information and amazing people!!!

Just saw my doctor for pre-op and he said that I didn't have to do a pre-op diet. I just cannot gain weight before my surfery. I may do it a couple days before just to be on the safe side.

You, too!!! I've been getting ready for the liquid diet, by gradually replacing meals with shakes, I cut out carbs the first part of August, so that's been good, too. I'm excited, nervous, scared, and determined, all at the same time!

Wonderful!!! I decided to start adjusting a little at a time, because I don't want to sabotage myself. My pre-op starts on the 12th. Are you guys going to do Premier, or Optifast?

I was just released after getting my sleeve put in yesterday at 10am. I'm sore but it's manageable. I wanna let everybody in on something. Everything is great until u wake up from anaesthesia. Upon waking up I don't care who you are it's shocking. I felt like I got ran over by a mack truck. The pain is bad and u really can't move for 5-6 hours with IV's and monitors hooked up too you. But don't worry it only goes up from there. My temperature was high until this morning so my doctor decided to release me. I'm now at home and resting which is way better than being stuck in the hospital confined. My abdominal region is very sore. From what I heard and read every day improves drastically. Just be prepared for the day of surgery that is by far theeee worst day. It's only up from here. Just remember this is a major surgery on a major organ so healing is done from the inside out. Good luck to everybody and I'm looking forward to seeing how everybody's surgery went.
