Sheleybeth 5 Posted November 8, 2018 I was scheduled for the gastric sleeve procedure I’m December. Last night the Dr called and said he had a cancellation for this Monday, November 12. I’m very excited and very nervous. Any advice would be appreciated. 2 2 1 Frustr8, FluffyChix, ProudGrammy and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Head spinning?!!You were not prepared for early WLS. You feeling excited, scared are very understandable. two common feelings by many OP Make some food ahead of time for family - DH or children. Plans to take are of children - or if none above apply - make plans for someone to check in on you. Don't over buy Protein Shakes, any food etc. Your taste buds might change. What you like today you might not like PO. Best of luck☺️ kathy 1 FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frustr8 7,886 Posted November 8, 2018 Just to sorta second Fluffy Chix and the rest, you're not pack,i g for a cruise, I packed, unpacked , repacked and although I didn't think I over-packed, I still didn't use most of what I took. Instead of a cruise, it's more like a baby'sitting job in what you need. Hospitals usually can or will furnish what you might need. If you don't mind ugly you'll do fine. I think Ohio State patients gowns are so blamed UGLY you would be,laughed off a city street if you tried to escape. And I ❤and appreciate their skill and care of me but ***these are their tailors!😈👿👹👺and😰. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I third what everyone’s saying about not taking much to the hospital! Get some clear Protein Drinks for afterwards because you’ll be sick of the super sweet and milky ones! Good luck! 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
