Another sleeve sister yay!!

Congratulations to you both.... Jerseygirl your my sleeve twin, I'm also scheduled for November 30th.

Welcome aboard deb1405! Good luck on your journey

Glad I could help..... I'm always asking questions, sure my coordinator shakes her head at some of them lol.... never know til ya ask I always say

Dr. Alvarez wants me to be quit 2 weeks prior to surgery but said that I could wear the patch during surgery as long as it wasn't on my abdomen.... not sure how other surgeons do things

I've already named mine.... I figure if my new stomach is anything like the one I've got now, it will be very temperamental..... so I've decided to call mine " Darth Sleevies"

I'm going November 30th.... there is another thread on here with all of Dr. Alvarez's patients... they've been a great help for me.

November 30

Congratulations @kalimomof3.... so happy for you! Good luck

Omg... this thread is so hilarious !! Thanks , I needed a good laugh

November 30th in Mexico

Hello Sarah and welcome to our "family" ! Congratulations and good luck on your journey. You are in the right place for support, comfort and sometimes just to vent lol... and congrats and welcome to the November sleevers

Hello George, it's normal to be feeling anxiety with any major surgery.... I'd be worried if you didn't feel nervous.... with that being said try and focus on why you are having the surgery... think and or write down all the positives that will happen after your recovery. I know it's hard to not be in control, Lord knows I feel the same way most of the time.... take a deep breath, put everything in God's hands... you're gonna do great!

Anytime.... glad I could help

I'm going to Mx as well.... Dr. Alvarez sent me a paper with how much protein, calories, carbs..... 70-75% of all calories should be protein based, carbs should be 10-20% of the calories, diet should consist of 700-800 calories and 70 grams of protein first 6-8 months. Hope this helps

Hello cara and welcome! You have come to the right place for support.... the people here are so friendly and helpful, they have been a God send for me. Good luck on your journey

So I was thinking... what do you guys think of starting a November sleevers post op thread?? That way we can still motivate and support each other....

I like the unjury and premier shakes of all the ones I have tried.

You definitely had a guardian angel watching over you... so glad that you are doing better. God Bless you

I like the idea of inches too.... I will be a late starter as well, my day is 11-30-12 , but I'm in and very excited
