Hi I know I'm pretty early to ask ,but is there anyone getting sleeved in November?

I'm traveling 7th Nov having surgery at the OOC with Dr Ortiz and then traveling back the 14th as he wants you to stay until the drain is out.

Hoping there are some others out there.

I'm scheduled for November 8th in Akron, OH (U.S.) close to were I live. I can not wait, working on loosing my pre-op 10lbs again.

Hello my name is Sasha and i'm have mine done in Nov 2 in Englewood NJ i'm going from a lapband to a sleeve .Has anyone had a revision done before?

Wow there sure are a lot of people with a November 2nd date! That is also my date with Dr. Fisher Kaiser Richmond, CA. I can sooooo relate to the mom who posted a fat mom is better than no mom. I am also so afraid of being put under. I have never had surgery before except for a c-section and they don't put you out for that. I'm just afraid that I will have a reaction to the anesthesia and I won't wake up.

Welcome fellow November 2nd peeps!

I`m scheduled for nov. 3rd & I can`t wait!

Hi I am going to Juarez Mexico on November 1st getting sleeved with Dr. Rod...anyone else?

Hi, I live in Alaska and am going to Las Vegas to have the vertical sleeve on November 5 with Dr. Umbach. He's doing it on an outpatient basis. In at 8am and released the same day. Has anyone else had this done on an outpatient basis? It's about $5,000 cheaper. I'll be staying with my sis there for 12 days after the surgery in case I need help. I hope I'm doing the right thing. Good luck to everyone getting sleeved in November!!

Welcome and Good Luck! I've never seen anyone mention having the sleeve as an outpatient procedure. You might want to post in the pre-op questions and answers section.

Thanks for responding. This is all new to me... this forum I mean. Trying to get the hang of it. I'll try to do another post in the pre-op questions and answers section.

I am totally new to this site and forum and Im not sure if I am posting stuff right or not! lol... Anyway, I just got my November 3rd surgery date a few days ago. I am sooooo excited that I am being blessed with this tool to help me on my weight loss journey...I have been trying to get this done now for almost 4 years...Now that its here its surreal to me! Im so scared something is going to happen to throw a wrench in the monkey works!! I pray every day that things will go smoothly! Im just SOOO excited! It will be a long journey for me since I have 200 lbs to lose... but so worth it, to be with my husband and kids and see my grandkids someday! I just feel really blessed! My pre-op diet starts a week before surgery....and what is this instinct to eat like a horse now that I know this is coming up..I really have to tell myself NO!

Hi, My surgery is also set for November 3rd in Las Vegas. I live in Alaska and am going there to visit my sister and have been able to schedule during that time. It's way cheaper there than Alaska and I'm a self pay. Anyway, I'm excited too but also scared but looking so forward to one day being able to look at myself in the mirror without being totally disgusted by what I see. And ever since I've made the decision to have the surgery, I have been eating like there's no tomorrow. lol.... I've just put in an order for my Protein shakes and they should be here in a few days. So I'll get going on my pre-op diet.

I am also new to this site and forum. Have posted maybe 3 or 4 times. Did a lot of lurking in the background before I posted. Also have read some stuff that has scared the crap outa me too but have to remember everyone is different and some respond to surgery different.

Wishing you all the success and a speedy recovery.

Hi, I'm new here! I have about 120 pounds to lose and I'm planning my surgery for November but I don't have a date yet. I'm feeling so anxious about how to plan for work, I have a daycare and can only take a week off. I know that sounds crazy but I will have help, so much of the day I still can rest. I am constantly reading these boards and everyone is doing so well, it is so inspiring. Good luck to everyone.

I am scheduled to have my VSG on Monday, November 15. My husband is scheduled to have his VSG on Monday, November 29. We are having ours at Christus St. Elizabeth Bariatric Center in Beaumont, TX. We are starting our pre-op diet this Monday then the liquid diet on November 2. I am really excited but I am also getting scared after reading some of the complications that others have had. I guess I need to stop reading those posts. Good luck to everyone! I hope we can all keep in touch and support each other.
