Made it out safe and sound! A bit sore but they are keeping me medicated. Been up and walked and sipping on Water and Protein shakes.

Well my time has come.. This is it... No turning back... Tomorrow is my big day. It's 9.45pm and about to try and sleep. Must be at the hospital at 6am. Excited, nervous, scared but I know it will all be worth it. For anyone else who will be sleeved tomorrow good luck and I'm looking forward to seeing less of me every day..

As most (I can imagine) I've been lurking through many forums gathering all of the information I possibly can before visiting my bariatric surgeon for a consultation on August 9th. I've made an appointment with my primary care specialist for the first to expedite the process of insurance approval (bcbs) I am a bit nervous for one reason I have been extremely fourth coming with my past with my PCP in which I struggled with methampetimine addiction (take a wild guess one of the reasons that became my drug of choice) anyhow I am about a year and 5 months in recovery and successfully completed rehabilitation. I am very scared that bariatric surgeon may see that as a hinderance over a tool. I truly believe that everything I learned in that time about my worth and building my support systems are things that will be invaluable to me through this process. I'm scared of this entire process. I'm also very ready. I believe the potential I have is just barely beginning to be tapped into. Any support of experience anyone may have similar to mine that could ease my mind a bit would be greatly appreciated.

Hi
Not from Sydney but 4 hours south in Regional NSW. I have been banded for 9 years and has lost 60 kg, keeping majority off. Having a few issues lately and have gained 14 kg back.
My surgeon suggested changing over to a sleeve. So here my journey starts again. I am to have my band removed on 15th August and then I will be Sleeved on 5th December. I'm feeling extremely nervous about removing my band, but understand for my own safety it's needed.
