Im sorry lovetobeskinny, I didn't see that coming :-( Im sure you will feel better soon. Please keep us posted on how you are doing.

Hey guys, there's an e-waiting room under Post-operation; people are logging in while in the hospital! Check it out!

Its under post operation. I just posted there a few min ago so it shouldn't be buried as of yet

Surgery is coming up next week so I will be posting here soon!

Ditto! How are you asifitsthelast?

Poetikjay we are sleeve sisters...yay! Can't wait to get passed the surgery and on to the good stuff! Lol

I am presleeve (surgery next week)and experienced quite a bit of anxiety myself about not being able to cope with food. I decided to come up with some fun beverage options for the full liquid stage and forward as well as alternatives to my favorite foods and Im feeling much better!

Congrats sky61777!

Welcome lovinglife1982!

It's just amazing how you can already see a difference in such a short period! You look great!

Hey there gang! We know you weren't sleeved too long ago, but Show us those pics!

Im in Ga and used Peachtree Bariatrics.

Sucks! Have you already been sleeved?

Im hoping you feel better soon asifitsthelast. I suffer from hedritis superativa which is similar to what it sounds like you are experiencing only my body doesn't need an operation to evoke this condition. Essentially my lymph nodes can't get rid of the "garbage" fast enough and they become infected and have to drain. The pressure building up behind the skin becomes excruciating at times until it finally pulls the skin so much it drains pus and blood. I know....gross. The great thing is that once it drains you are on the road to recovery! It will def take a while for your wound to close and more than likely your skin may be a little tough there moving forward but again you're probably over the toughest part. Keep us posted hon!

Alright Crystal!!! Yes, many ppl on this forum started out believing the band was the right choice. During my first seminar all procedures were discussed and it was that day I decided the sleeve was perfect for me!

Congrats everybody!

Thanks RAAinNH! I definitely that!

So as many of you guys have experienced, my surgeon's staff has been so frustrating to work with. They have slowly sucked some of the joy out of the process by being combative and elusive. Don't get me wrong, I ' m still happy about my sleeve and new way of life and got my sleeve date today etc. (2/13l but the sheer fact they have screwed me over so much makes me feel I will not have the support I need from them post op. Thank.God I have a supportive family. Anyone else feel this at all? Just need a little pumping up right now.

Thx Ms. Pitts and Petra!
