Not anymore for me, but a few weeks after I did. My Surgeon said it was Muscle pains.

Surgery Date - 8/2 Hw - 317 SW - 303 CW - 271 I LOVE MY SLEEVE!

Good Luck to all the Sister and Brothers on their way to becoming Sleeved!

I am better. Ready to go home.

Another update I am still in the hospital. I developed a lung infection which I am being treated for. Hopefully I can home tomorrow.

Drop it like its hot Newlife!! Good Job!

Hi! Same insurance and BMI over 50. I was approved immediately. However my Surgeon had some kind of surgical procedure himself and was not immediately available to complete my surgery and i did not want to start over with a new Surgeon so I waited. I am scheduled for Aug 2nd. My process began in February.

I'm now Aug. 2nd.

Good job Rodney.

Hey My August folks. My date has been moved up twice. First I was September 23rd, then September 3rd, now I am August 2nd. I am glad to join you all on the losers bench really soon.

Beautiful

Ok Ladies I need some help. I love love love love to shop! On a recent shopping trip for some necessities for my 2 boys I decided that I will pick up some items for my post-surgery weight loss. I was looking to buy some clothes from a size 24 down to a 16. Just a few items nothing serious. As I was skimming through the smaller sizes I could not wrap my mind around that I may possibly be in those size 20, 18, or 16 pants and found myself so stressed out that I said forget it and just purchased some summer items in my now size 24. Once I arrived home I was down in the dumps about not being able to wrap my mind around purchasing smaller clothing. Have any of you ladies ever had this happen? If so, how can I get past this? Please inform me if I am jumping the gun on shopping as I will not be sleeved until Sept. 23. Thanks for the advice, Rashaun

Absolutely!!!

I am still pre-op and can not answer your question, however I wanted to just say hello and welcome you to the forum.

Awesome! I have been looking for local buddys.

I actually have not been sleeved yet. My date is not until September 23rd. I have just been taking my time to get mentally prepared for this lifestyle change. My biggest fear is not the surgery it self it is the psychological part of it. I want to be strong enough to fight off head hunger and believe that I can get this weight off.

I am with that!
