Oh, SherB, that sucks!!! Don't worry, I did the same thing when my doc put me on phentermine. I laugh about it now but that's why I wanted to make sure this one wasn't going to show up. hehehe pretty silly, but I still want to keep it private except for my immediate family.

I just check my form and the thing says that Monday is actually June 30th. BUT, I won't actually be out of the hospital until July so does that work?

Is it a secure group? I just don't want that on my wall with all my friends and family. They don't all know yet. I will be sleeved on July 1st. I'm super excited!!!!

Hi, is this FB group only for Sleevers on July "14th"?

Hi Cassie, I was afraid to tell my husband too. He is always supportive and he too is a twig. The problem is... he is a chef and shows his love by cooking for people. I finally told him that I wanted to do it and he said "why? I love you the way you are." I told him that I love myself too but I really need to like myself and I don't. After him playing the devil's advocate for an hour or so, he asked how he could help. It's two weeks until my surgery and he walks with me every morning, makes sure I'm hydrated and makes sure I get enough Protein drinks in (even if I don't want one!) Maybe I created a monster LOL. My son is the one that is having a hard time with it, he's 25, and he just wants me to be safe during the surgery and have no complications. I think we are blessed to have this tool to help us. Do this for your 2 year old!!! Do this for you and your future and your SO!

Okay, now that you know for sure what you hate about being fat, you should make a list of what you love about yourself or what you will love to be doing when you get healthy. There is never a time when negative self talk is good for us. I am still working on this myself LOL

Wow, sounds like you are really excited Do you get emotional? I get sleeved on June 30th and when I made my travel arrangements I was so emotional I just started crying. I'm not scared or anything but I sobbed lol The diet info you gave is great because I wasn't really sure what all the liquid diet consisted of or how much of it per day. I think I will try a few different Protein shake during this time and try to pick a favorite.

Hang in there I have been reading A LOT and doing my research and all the forums on all the sites say that this will pass. Most of them say that by the end of week 3 it gets much better. I don't know for sure because I'm not getting sleeved until June 30th. Keep us posted and let us know how you are doing Smile

Great Job!!! You look fantastic I'm getting sleeved on June 30th and I keep debating if I should do before and after pictures. I don't know if I could pull off a swim suit though LOL You are way more brave than me!

Mine is on June 30th. Are you emotional? I have been since I booked my flights. I know this will be the best thing for us and our health will improve so much but I'm still emotional. I'm excited that I'm finally taking this step but my emotions are all over the place. Weird!!!

I re Awww Pamela69. If you don't mind me asking, why are you emotional? Are you possibly having second thoughts? I am excited and anxious. I so want to be on the "other side" like yesterday.

Hi Denise 73! My surgery is also scheduled for June 30th I'm so excited but I've been really emotional since booking my flight.
