Got my sx time for tomorrow 7:30am.....got alot of nervous energy right now...

just got my surgery time!! I'm first tomorrow morning have to be there at 6am! so excited!!

Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers Jsayles and Jussme!! Also all the other sleevers today and in the future!! I have my last surgical consult today before my surgery on the 27th. For those teetering remember why we all started this process, and focus on the prize at the end. A healthier and skinner us!! Less medical problems, less medications, less stress on joints, and a new lease on life with a positive attitude!! Best of luck to you all!! :-D

My surgery is also on Feb 25th. I've lost about 5lbs on the Preop diet. I started a week early. About 9lbs to go for my pre-surgery goal. Not going to make it but feel good about losing 44lbs on my own.
Good luck everyone!

I've always worn Spanx, even when I was a size 2 previously I wore some sort of spanx like product. I don't exactly hit the gym daily and I like to rein in the jiggle factor as much as reasonable.
Typically I wear the high waist tights under cloths. Funny thing though....my danged spanx are getting too big LOL You KNOW you've lost weight when your spanx start slipping down on ya heh heh

I am just getting ready to have my sleeve on March 4th, but this caught my eye because I wear Spanx everyday now, and see it probably won't be much different after ....LOL!

Thank you for all your posts everyone--- your helping my anxiety level as I do my count down to 2/27

Sleeved about 5 hours ago. Feeling awesome. Pain is about a 2 on a 10 scale. Dr Kim is great!

Hello everyone! Tomorrow is my big day to be sleeved! I am more than ready! Good Luck to all who are being sleeved this month!

I was sleeved yesterday and I'm feeling great. Just had a couple of small bites of Jello and that's all I could do. It got a little painful so I stopped. I haven't had any gas pains either. I guess that might start latter I don't know.
VSG Date: 2/13/13

Thanks i'm here now n just got weighed! Lost 25 pounds! Super excited!

I would do it if you have time. It's a good precaution and if not used then you donated blood for someone who might ... Win/Win

As long as I've been on this site I could not wait until I could be the one posting my pic/post for getting under 200 lbs!!!!

You guys are going to do great. I am also 8 days out and can't tell I've had any surgery....well except I am constantly full. Everything is back to normal and I feel great.
I agree with Marcy, the emotional side is the hardest. Once surgery is over everything fads away. I am excited for all of you.

I was sleeved today. To be honest it wasn't that bad ( besides them not being able to start an IV after 3 tries). So they put it in my arm and not my hand. They gave me a sedative before I went into the Operating Room. I don't even remember going into the OR. I was very nausea's after surgery from the pain meds. The hardest part for me was the nausea. I kept asking for ice chips and that helped me alot. I feel no different when I drank Thankfully. So don't be nervous February Sleevers, Best Wishes to all

So glad there are so many of us on or around the 26th. We can really support each other through the journey.
