I'm getting sleeved by them the day after SerendipityHappens so you'll have some info from both of us, I'm sure. I haven't found much about them either, but from what I have found they sound knowledgeable. Nonetheless, we'll be your guinea pigs.

It's like a scrapbook, but with less structure. I found it at Joann's Craft Store. I've seen them on Amazon as well.

14. Maintain a sense of humor. You are still alive after all and laughter burns calories (not sure if my FitBit will count it, but hey...)

Your stomach is so black I can't see it lol...try it one more time.

Maybe you could ask for something to relax you a bit. Maybe then you won't think about being bored or frustrated. Idk...works for me sometimes...I think it's a Kolonopin kinda night anyway!

WOW! What an experience. I'm glad your friend was with you to help you thru it.
We're about to get hit with another snow storm with ice tonight and into Tuesday. I was supposed to be flying back on Monday. So I guess its good that things have been postponed. Can't wait to join you on the other side.

I'm settled in at the Marriott. Got here about 2pm...had a nice nap and a wonderful shower. Got together with 3 other sleevers for broth and popsicles in the dining room. Feeling tired but otherwise it is hard to believe that my surgery was only 50 hours ago! As of right now, I'm not taking any pain meds and am feeling fine. Still getting some gas rumblings but they are minor.
Amazing...no hunger or interest in food at all. Care at hospital was very good...will give more details later. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers. I am sleeved and doing great!

hi everyone, Finally made it into surgery at 7 pm. All went well. Tough night gas pains, but night doctor was great. Still getting occasional sharp pains, but it is less frequent. Pain and nausea control meds in my IV. On the road to recovery! Thanks for all the good thoughts and prayers.

Just tried nectar (Cookies & Cream) that I ordered from bjsbariatrics.com. Not bad really. Filling. You can choose which flavors you want to try in the 11 pack sampler. Pretty sweet.

Now I'm set for the 14th. We can do rounds together. Who is your doctor again?

I just want to say I love sugar free Popsicles...that is all

... there was a way to have a Surgiversary getaway next year for our fellow Mexi-Sleevers? Say in, Puerta Vallarta or Cancun? Or a cruise? Idk... Just thinking out loud.

Bring a notepad for your questions and write down the answers! Also have them give you the medication instructions in writing. Why? Because your memory is shot after anesthesia. I just had to email my doc because I couldn't remember the bathing/ hot tub wait time, and I asked that before surgery! I had my questions written down, but failed to write the answers.
