This is 2012 right? I can't believe that they are keeping you awake. Mine was great. He gave something to mellow me out as soon as he got to my preop room and the in the operating room he knocked me out and woke up with no pain in my throat or lungs. I'm sorry

My decision was pretty simple after hearing that my brother had his band slip on him and a good friends body rejected her band (it started eating away at her stomach). Weight loss is right away with the sleeve. You have to understand that it is a life long choice whether or not u get the band or the sleeve. I wouldn't have it any other way. I am 2 day away from being a month post-op and I am down 37 pounds and feel great. My favorite part about it that I'm never hungry. Good luck with whichever you decide.

Is anyone else having problems getting the samples to dissolve? I currently buy the chocolate truffle in the tub and its never an issue. So far I have opened two packs and they are real clumpy.

I'm from Dover but live in Las Vegas, does that count?

Vegas here. Sleeved 11/05

I am also a male and around the 350 mark. I was sleeved three weeks a go and so far so good. What was your gym schedule like and when did you start going to the gym? Good job

Small world...Dr. Soong did mine the same morning at Desert Springs.

I had mine done on the 5th and in Vegas too. Who was your Dr?

My life changed on the 5th and I feel almost the same way as you. I have a deal with myself that I wasn't going to weigh myself until I was a week into normal food (end of week 4). Your body has to adjust to what has happened to it and its not fair to you and your emotions while this process is going on. Good luck

Sleeved the 5th. Pre-op 370 Today 358

Which one has 50 grams of protein? The ones I see have between 20 and 25 per serving?

Yes I admit it, I have some serious man boobs going on right now and let's say most of my life. I was sleeved on the 5th of Nov and I was wondering if any males out there have lost their boobs. I know your out there so don't try to deny it.

He is called Half Pint!

I'm ready for the 5th. I was fortunate enough not yo have to go on a pre-op diet so I have been living life as normal. I live 10 mins from the hospital and have purchases everything possible.

I just got my call from the hospital this afternoon. I have to be there Monday morning at 6:30am. I am the first of the day!

I am looking to see if there are any other males having surgery on 11/5? Just want someone to compare with.

I know how you feel. Paperwork was submitted on Sept 25th with an October 22nd surgery date. Got word on the 15th my physc eval was out of date so I went the next day and faxed it right away. They didn't have it approved by the 19th so I had to reschedule the surgery to November 5th. I finally got the approval so I'm ready to go!

Thanks for all your help. I'll call the office on Monday just to be on the safe side.

My job is giving out free flu shots on Monday but I not sure if I should get one. Monday will be exactly one week before my surgery and I am not sure if I can. Anyone have an answer?

I can fit one of the "casnio" size bottles of water in my pocket if I had to. A camel pack is not a bad idea.....

I was wondering if any of you guys or gals are in the food industry? I am a chef in a Las Vegas and is scheduled to get sleeved on the 22nd. I was wondering if you have any tips on how you get through your busy work day staying hydrated and without driving yourself crazy with all the food around. My biggest concern is the water intake. I know I am supose to sip sip sip but for the past 15 plus years I have been programed to down a bottle of water in a minute. I am really worried when I get real busy that I won't drink enough due to the small amount of fluids I will be able to take in and the time that I have to get them in. Any advice will be greatful.

Scheduled for 10/22. Can't wait

Is it ok to go if you haven't been sleeved YET? Do you have to sign up for them or can you just walk in? I'm scheduled for 10-22 and want to see as much up front as I can.
