Hello everyone!! I have been 'lurking' around this site for the last few weeks trying to get as much information as possible on the sleeve. I was going back and forth between the band or the sleeve but with all of your helpful information, along with support from my doc, I chose the sleeve. Saw my doc this morning and have a surgery date for July 28. WHOOOO HOOOO!!! I am so excited that I don't think there is room for nerves. Not really sure how I am going to make it until the 28th but I am sure that I'll make it just fine.:001_smile: I am, however, a little worried about getting the eating thing right, as far as the right clear and full liqiuids, etc. Either way I am just so stinkin' excited!! My husband will have his sleeve done on Aug 4. This will be an awesome journey!!!

Welcome to the site - I felt like someone was "watching" me -- LOL ... I had my sleeve surgery on June 12th and my fiance (beardeditalian) had his on July 11th. It will be a nice journey for you and your DH to take together - we feel as though it has drawn us closer to one another.

I am looking forward to this journey with him. Really looking forward to looking great for him. He thinks I look great anyway.....I think he's blind....it works well for us. :001_smile:

Hey Jill, welcome to our forums, glad to have you here! Congratulations on deciding to get the sleeve. I think it is great that you and your dh will be going through this together. It makes for a great support team, as I am sure Bearded and Vegas can testify to.

Welcome and good luck with your op. I am 8 days post-op and feeling fine. You will be too.
