Look at all of us April folks! How are you guys preparing

Hey guys! I'm about 27 days out from surgery and was wondering.... Experienced sleevers, what you know now that you wish you knew prior to being sleeved? What you wish you had packed for the hospital??? What you wished you had done to prepare, mentally, emotionally and physically? After you came home??? Etc. etc. etc. Gimme ALL the deets ... LOL thanks!

Thank you!

Yasss! Congraties!

Congrats!!! Woot woooot!

Yay! Good luck! Here's to an uneventful surgery and a quick recovery!

That's one thing I need to do better with, water! I need to put a reminder on my phone or something! Thanks for responding!

Thanks for the info! I'm adding it to my list of things to get within the next week. Countdown is on!

LOL Thanks!! Wooot! May will be here before you know it. Thank you! I am very very excited and READY...so ready lol

Thanks for the tips! I hurried and googled it and am going to order a brush soon or go by sally's and buy one. Where are you going to have your chemical peels or are you doing them at home yourself? My facial chemical peels I get from makeup artists choice so ill have to see what they have for the body

I just called my insurance and they said approved!!!! I am so grateful and in awe. Thank you God!

Thanks every one for chiming in. I truly appreciate it. I'm going to look into this dry brushing method too. Any tips for that?

Boom! That's what I'm talking about! Even if it doesn't work or help, I'll know without a shadow of a doubt, that I did everything I could to help alleviate the issue. I'm going to look into that Jergens lotion. Thanks! I've had two kids and my skin bounced back each time, with minimal stretch marks, so I'm hoping that all will be well. Putting out positive vibes for little to no skin sag!

A week! That was quick! Congrats on the approval! When do u begin your preop diet? Hey! What are you doing to prepare?

That's so awesome! Any tips for us newbies?

Omg yes! I look at my calendar and it's like 4 weeks away but you know it'll be here before we know it!

Yes there is. It's a secret spring 2016 group.

Hey y'all! I'm about a month out from my tentative surgery date so I'm trying to prepare myself in every way possible. What are you guys doing to help your skin and minimize skin sagging after surgery? I've upped my Water intake, trying to get lots of Protein in and taking a Multivitamin. Right now, I'm using a Shea butter lotion but I think I'm doing to add vit e oil and bio oil to it. I've also peeped a Keratin lotion on Amazon that I'm thinking about incorporating too. If any of you are experienced and have had some success in reducing the amount of skin sag, please inform the rest of us Pre surgery friends: what's your plan for battling skin sag?

How exciting! Are you nervous? Thanks! How's your year been? Omg! Happy early bday!
