  8. goodluck to everyone being sleeved today! the worst part for me was when I woke up in recovery sore throat i felt like a fish out of water my first words were thirsty lol I was in pain level 8 but as everyone says with each day you get better the hard part will be over then its all about just following surgeons orders I promised myself no matter how much pain im in I would not come on this forum complaining with any type of remorse to possibly discourage any other future sleevers im basically 3 days post op && feeling more stronger && alert each day so once again goodluck all god bless<3

  10. hopeful that's really early!!! yeah my focus has switched to just focusing on getting through surgery. I umderstand what you mean about the diets smh they never last long term! wow I had no idea you were 66, I can only imagine how much harder life has been for you.im going to look for that book also love hearing about others experiences. My family youtubed the surgery they started. getting so worried they thought the bigger portion of my stomach stays inside me I said nooooooo lol are you crazy! im just glad they're being so supportive of me. I will be sure to share my experience with everyone wish you bunches of luck<3 Glad you are holding up okay. Don't worry now about people changing now. Just think about getting through the surgery tomorrow beautifully and coming out on the other side when the worst part will be over! That is what I am thinking. My surgery is scheduled at 8am and I have to be at th hospital at 5:45 am tomorrow morning!!! This means I have to wake up at 4 am!!! I am happy to have it in the morning so my this time tomorrow I will be (hopefully) be in recovery waiting to go to my room and see my friends!
