sleeve 4 me

Thanks for your post, I needed to read this seriously LOL!

Congrats to YOU!

I'm freaking out right with you girlie lol...but we are going to be fine and from what I've read it will be the best thing we've ever done for ourselves:redface1: blessing to you!

I'm sooo nervous and excited too! I can't believe tonight is the last night I am going to chew on anything until September 9th LOL! It's kinda freaking me out LOL but I'll live. I am totally going to take my body pillow with me to the hospital:biggrin0: thanks for the 411...

See they understand and are there to help yayyyy! Just keep going and don't give up! You got this:biggrin2:!

Anytime:redface1: us sleeve sisters have to stick together! I know it's all going to come together for you...hugs:biggrin2:

Ohhhh ok...thanks!

Ok dumb question but what exactly are gas x strips LOL??? liquid? pills? or just what it says strips? And if so, what in the heck do you do with these strips? Hahahaha:laugh0:

That's Sweet :-)

WOW 16 lbs. is awesome!!! Yayy for you :-)

Thanks everyone!

I totally agree! I was always stressed out about it and didn't really get to enjoy the journey because I wasn't sure if I was going to get the surgery or not:sad0:...just finish the classes that's the most important part!

Ok I sleep on my side and I have been using a body pillow for a loooong time now...I started using a body pillow during my first pregnancy over 18 years ago. Anyhoo, after my surgery will I be able to sleep on my side and use my body pillow??? I really hope so (it's so comfy), I was planning to take it to the hospital with me :svengo:. Thanks for your help:thumbup:

Feel better soon!

I was told 30 minutes ugh...that's going to be tuff for me:frown1: but I will try:redface1:

Welcome :-)...I too have lost and gained, and gained back more. I'm praying this tool will help me to finally get to my healthy and normal weight that I was always meant to have :-).

I did not lose 10%, I was up and down during the options process, I think I lost around 5lbs total, and I'm having my surgery this coming Friday...And I know of others in my same class who did not lose the 10%. I think the main thing is you must complete all the options classes and pre-op tests as soon as they tell you to go get them done and don't gain of course. If you can lose the 10% that is awesome. I'm just sharing what happened with me personally. Hope it helps.

You look so pretty and happy :-) Thanks for sharing!

Feel better soon!

Please don't give up! It will be alright! I was the same way up and down during my options classes (story of my life). I never did lose the required 10%, I believe I only ended up losing 5 lbs. total...Please keep going, that is really the true requirement to getting to the next step, you must finish all your classes. I will say a prayer for you, I know you can do it:redface1:

Wow that's awesome!

Got it, sip, sip walk, walk! Love it :-)

Lil tummy too cute :-)...

Ok so walking around helps??? Ok I will get myself mentally prepared to get to steppin and WALK :-)

AniO, AniO how are you my sleeve sista????
