Anyone scheduled for sleeve with Dr. Aceves the week of Jan 18th - 22nd.

I'm scheduled for my sleeve with Dr. Aceves Jan 19th. I'll be arriving on the January 18th and heading home Jan. 22nd.

Would love to touch base with any others scheduled that week.

Look forward to meeting some friends while there.

Ya! I'm trying (with the monday holiday) to get things in order today, hoping I can find someplace for my dog, a plane ticket, etc... And, get money in order. If not, I will have to come down February 1. Either way, I'm going soon!

Here's to your sleeve! how exciting :001_cool:

gooluck to both of you.....Dr. Aceves and his staff are great, i?m sure you?ll agree.

Talked to Nina, I won't be there this week. I'll be down from Jan 31-Feb 4. :smile: good luck, all! :)

And... even though I'm below 40 BMI, they are asking me to do the pre-op diet for a week before the surgery. Anyone else doing this? Any advice for me? thanks!
