    I'm in the process of packing my bag, cleaning, feeding the little ones, going back to packing...lol I'm all over the place! I've read that others just take very few items, definitely bring a robe, eos lip balm, charger, gas x strips, PPI, and an extra pair of clothes just incase (most have said they didn't need it)! As long as I have a way to see how my girls are doing that's all that matters for me lol I'm hoping my husband can bring them once I'm done, they are the first thing I want to see when waking up ???? No timeline for me yet either. The guy that told me what time to be there the next morning (9:00am) said the soonest I'd go back is 11am but could be later, that kind of nonsense is not easy for someone who likes to plan ;P lol!
  4. Anything can have its downsides...I originally considered the band, but after researching possible slippage, corrosion of the stomach where the band was placed that could end up being a revision to sleeve afterward which would mean two surgeries, two recoveries, etc...also the constant needles and having to mess with fills as well as dealing with the entire lifestyle change that comes along with any weight loss surgery just wasn't what I wanted....the foreign body was the deal breaker though over all. The sleeve may be irreversible, but that seems to be the only downside aside from possible complications that are relatively low...I want something that is for life, something I can count on..something I can't just remove if I'm having a hard time or if I just want to give up....that's my two sense anyway...everything has its good and bad, it's ur body, uve done the research, now just weigh the pros and cons and make a decision....you will do great either way! What works for one won't work the same for another good luck! Also I hope no one with or who has had the band takes any offense to what I've said ❤️

    March Sleevers

    The unknown scares the heck out of me! I just keep filling myself with positivity thought and telling myself that everything will be okay and I'll do just fine. We both know that not everything will be rainbows and bunnies, but it won't be forever unlike our current situation if you know what I mean lol

    I totally understand what ur feeling, we are about to go through such a life changing experience that it seems as if everything will be sooo much different on the other side, and there is no doubt that it will at the beginning. Eventually though we will begin to get to know our sleeves and our bodies all over again and though we won't be able to eat in such large unhealthy quantities or have that "I'll start my new diet Monday" mentality, it won't be long until we will be eating normal foods that we used to love, but in moderation! And this time we'll look even sexier doing it haha just keep doing the best you can and keep trucking, all we can do is keep moving forward

    March Sleevers

    I'm right there with you! Monday is our day! I'm super excited but a bit nervous, I've also never had any type of surgery before, so I don't know what to expect. All I know if that the end result with help me get to where I need to be. Best wishes to you!! ❤️ Aw thank you @@la619sd Same to you! Soon we are going to be saying "this is the best thing I ever did for myself" like so many others here ...today is my last day of high protein, low carb and tomorrow is nothing but liquids and it's not phasing me one bit because the nerves are killing my hunger anyway lol I did my last minute shopping yesterday...I'd seriously be lost without this site!
