  1. Bad news for me. My band had eroded into my stomach. Dr said he saved my life. Thank you God! He also said no sleeve or even bypass EVER! I'm very upset right now. Been crying a lot but I would rather have my life. Thanks for all your prayers and support. May God send you all wonderful success!

  4. Well bad news, no sleeve for me now or ever! No bypass either. My band had eroded into my stomach. Took 2 hours to get out. Dr had to call in a gastro specialist to help. I'm very upset right now. But the doctor said he saved my life. I know all things work together for those who love The Lord. I hate I will never be part of the losers bench. Much success to all you guys. I have enjoyed getting to know you all.
  5. I'm in hospital with IV waiting my turn. Nervous but ready to go. God speed to all sleevers today!
  6. I want to send prayers and a speedy recovery to all my 10/11/12 sleeve buddies! Choc_thicktothin, Holly5.3, gottaloozit, charchar, SCS, MNSleeveGirl, CaliAmber, VNaNa, Gig, suejersey, Neta912 and wanna. We have a rocking date and we are going to ROCK this! Please keep me posted on your recovery. See you guys on the losers bench! My verse for each of you. Isaiah 41:10

  19. Starting my pre-op on Monday. Must do liquid diet for 10 days. I can't believe it is almost here. I am a band to sleeve revision and nervous my sleeve won't be done due to scar tissue. My Doc (Alvarez) won't do the revision if too much scar tissue in one surgery, will have to wait 5 months but I want what is best for me . We are going to the Melting Pot tonight for my last meal . Best of luck to all my 10/11/12 sleeve sisters! WE ROCK!
  20. We are sleeve sisters! I am getting excited and nervous. My surgery is by Dr. Alvarez in Mexico. Best of luck to you and God bless!
  21. October 11th with Dr. Alvarez in Mexio. Getting nervous and excited!
