    Hi! Please keep us posted & let us know how it goes. I am having mine done through Dr. Lopez on 3/7. I have 3 kids & I have had the same thoughts that you are having & I am getting really nervous. I just keep reminding myself that this is for my kids also. I need to be healthy so I can be around for them for a long time.

    I had my sleeve done by Dr. Lopez on Feb.5. I went alone, met some other sleevers and now have become good friends, and everything went great, it was a wonderful experience..I had hardly any pain, no gas pain..and have lost 28 lbs since surgery...you made a good choice, you will do fine..btw I am 55....

    Ok. I guess traffic is pretty bad the driver was late this morning to pick us up. I met a buddy karen also came alone from PA she's having surgery with a different doctor Lopez. Anyhow driver pick us up and we made it here I was first on the list they call me downstairs to get my blood work done. After that they took me to my room , a little nervous still if you nurses veronica susie my cordinator was niecy nice lady also have surgery with doctor pepper she's great . I have doctors around come talk to me before surgery his intern also and the anesthesiologist. after that the wheelchair driver take me to the operating room. It was so quick I was sleep in a moment's notice.

    When I woke up have been a pain so they gave me a pain shot made it so much better. Then after that there was really no pain only a little nauseous and hiccups when I get up which are annoying. I'm not hungry at all, the drains are in don't hurt but I'm just so tired and exhausted I've been asleep all day. I got up a couple hours ago to see Karen my buddy. She seemed OK but then I was up feelin naseous came back here to my room and lay down.

    I'll keep you guys updated if anything changes about to go to bed again tired

    Hey all you OCC post-op-ers- I have a question about pre-op. If I've asked this before I apologize! I'm starting my pre-op on 2/1 and it says I'm allowed to have leafy greens and those spray dressings. I haven't been able to find any of those in thstores- if did the pre-op diet with eating leafy greens what did u eat and what dressing did u use? I'm not sure if I'm looking for fat free dressings or calorie free/ lo-cal dressings or both??

    I plan on using Walden Farms, it has no calories, no fat, no sugar, and comes in a wide variety of flavors, not sure where you live if it is available there, Google it, and see if you can find it....I have tried several flavors and they are very good.. good luck I start my 14 day on Wednesday....
