Hi all, I am new to this websit. I am having my sleeve done next Friday :001_tongue: Super excited about the whole process. I appreciate knowing the good, bad and ugly!

I have read lots of "good,bad, & ugly" posts on here. It doesn't take long to search around and find. I don't even have a date set yet, so maybe you can come back and tell all of us those things you would have liked to know before your surgery. Good Luck!

Welcome ... and second Eureka-C. What do you want to know?

Whats the hardest part of it all? The diet, emotions, pain.....? Thank you

Hey there Doug, we share our surgery dates. Go friday the 13th woot woot. This is my second trip to have the surgery. LONG story but I am super excited. Congrats.

Dude the first 2 weeks was hardest for me the emotional bond with food drinking broth while the comercials for pizza was killer I was a week post op I am down 92lbs since april 15th but I still have a long way to go

Hi

I had my sleeve 3 weeks ago in Orlando - ORMC - where are you having yours done?

My experience was very good - the only pain was when I came to in recovery and that only lasted a few minutes. No gas experience as many others have had, no feeling of being kicked in the stomach. My surgeon is the best and the hospital had their stuff together. I would be glade to answer any questions you might have...

Those pizza commercials were killer for me too....never saw so many damned pizza commercials as I did during those first couple of weeks...lol

All I can say is gotta love TIVO haha speed through the commercials. Congratulations on your surgery date. I am cheering you on. :crying:
