I have my surgery scheduled for this coming Wednesday, May 30th. Looking for some Chicago or Chicagoland sleeve buddies! I am almost 25 years old and would love to meet some people my age going through the same thing!

Hi! I'm south of the city, in Kankakee County. I just attended my pre-op seminar at Silver Cross Hospital with BMI Surgical Group (Dr. Joyce & Dr. Lahmann). I have been researching WLS for last 3 months, but actually had a consultation for gastric bypass almost 10 years ago! I'm glad I waited, the sleeve seems to be the "right" surgery for me and my life! I hope you have great success with your surgery and change in lifestyle, I will look forward to hearing about your experience.
BTW I'm 48 and an RN, and grandma to 2 awesome grandsons!
Best Wishes!

Mina, I am in the same boat. Well, sort of. I am on my 5 day pre-op diet. Today is day 3. I am holding up well. Aunt Flo decided she wanted to come early so I am craving chocolate hardcore. What Protein Drink are you using? I haven't been using any so far and I do feel fine but my doctor warned me to start taking something asap.

I'm from Chicago! My surgery is this coming Wednesday, the 30th. I have Dr. Tiesenga. Any one else near the Oak Park/Elmwood Park area?
