I will be right after ya on November 6th! Good luck. Almost there!

Nov 6th for me too!

I am scheduled for surgery in about a week on Nov 6th! It is coming so fast! Yikes! I started to try to prepare myself by watching what I eat and portions. I am now on my pre op diet which is more flexible than most. I am allowed I have 3 carnation instant Breakfast shakes a day and two lean or smart ones meals. I started out weighing 268 on my first meeting with the doc 2 months ago and today I weighed 251! I can't believe I am actually loosing weight! I haven't been under 250 since before I had my first child 8 years ago! I am so excited to keep going and become a healthy person. Good luck to you all who have surgery this week and those who are fresh out of surgery!

Nov 6th for me too!

I have my pre op next week and was thinking about this for two reasons. First my step mom had it done and she had about 65-75% taken out. I saw what she has been able to do with it and she is very successful. Also I have a very sensitive stomach and get sick to my stomach about everytime I eat. I am worried with it being so small. I am not sure what to do.

I am from Middletown too. I am with dr teel out of Miami valley hospital. Surgery date is nov 6th!

Ok this might be a silly question but for you post sleevers who say you cannot tolerate certain foods. What were the signs that your sleeve didn't like that food? Do u get a stomach ache? Loose bm? Just wanted an idea of what I would be feeling. Surgery is almost here. November 6th! Can't wait!

Nov 6th for me too!

Mine are roller coasters, running around with my kids, my knees not hurting when I go up the steps, running (I have always wanted to like running). And of course skinny sex!

Well good luck on getting your approval and date. Today I was at the hospital from 6:30am to 1:30 pm. I had to get bloodwork, EKG, X-rays, upper GI, and two different classes. One was a nutrition course and the other covered the hospital stay and surgery. It was very long but informative. Only one more appt left with the surgeon next wed on the 31st then surgery on the 6th! Yay. 2 more weeks!

My date is November 6th

Me too! Sitting here now. 6:30 am to 1:30 pm. Good luck.

Thinking of all you ladies! Good luck!

Mine is scheduled for November 6th! Election Day and my b day is November 10. Happy birthday to me!

My surgery date is November 6th too! And my birthday is 4 days later on the 10th. What an awesome birthday present we are giving to ourselves!

You look great. Congratulations! My surgery is November 6th. I can't wait to be where you are at!

I am November 6th too! So nervous and excited! Good luck to you!

I have "Before" and "Almost Halfway" pics....

Good luck!
