Ah your on the East Coast as well I'm in Ma. Good luck to you to 3 more days to go!!

Well looks like I will be having my surgery when frankenstorm gonna hit us..joy joy

Do you get better results using the free weights or using the weight machines and for how long at each session?

Get to the gym when u feel ready and start using weight training along with cardio that is the key I know someone who has no loose skin at all. 3-5 days a week at the gym and I have another friend who is 1 yr out and has never worked out who has tremendous loose skin

Serenity, good luck tomorrow. Praying for a speedy recovery for you. I'm going in on Tuesday

I being sleeved October 30th! I love this idea I'm Michelle Gonzalez on Facebook Starr 1202@ Facebook.com

Glad I came across this thread I'm going in October 30 th what a great list!!!

Oh wow my bad thanks lol

What's a nut appt?

I'm going in on the 30th as well and I to have been counting the days down but I'm scared and excited. I think we're in the same boat..lol

Oops wrong thread..lol

So what does everyone think about a iced mocha madness after surgery....

Oh no I wouldn't want to wait that long but hey your scheduled that should be a little exciting for u I know I was so excited when I got my date. I'm scared to death being my first surgery but excited at the same time. I just can't wait to go in

I need this surgery done ASAP I didn't want to stall it until school break I feel the surgery is more important right now. One of my professors wants me back in a week so I think I'm gonna go to the dean I know that the school must have some sort of allowance for medical illness...hopefully

No pre op diet except for the day before. I just got a call from a nurse at the hospital they need to do a 20-30 minute intake over the phone it's becoming so real. Well scared or not I'm not gonna let that get in the way I need this surgery.

I just got my approval last Wednesday and my surgery is October 30th. This will be my first surgery ever and I'm excited about it but then scared to death. The thought of me lying on the gurney knowing they gonna inject me with something to knock me out is the scariest part for me.

I'm happy to hear that some of you can still get their coffee so maybe I can sneak a cup in a few times. I'm a mocha fanatic and I know the mocha would be to much just yet but just a plain old coffee would satisfy me for a bit.

Glad to hear it went well. Wishing you the best of luck for a speedy recovery

Welcome Marilyn, I am new to this to I just got my insurance approval last week and having surgery next Tuesday. It's completely normal to be scared as many of us are excited about it and nervous at the same time.

I'm a college student how long should I expect to be out for. Surgery is the 30th and not sure how long I should tell my professors that I will be out for.

I wonder why each surgeon is different. My surgeon says no coffee for 3 months and not to even try decaf because there is small amounts of caffeine in decaf.

Do I really have to stay away from coffee for 3 months after surgery. Would I be able to get decaf. Anyone know what the issue is with coffee

Congrats I'm having mine on the 30th to.

Any Tobey Hospital sleevers here

Best of luck to you
