Hi just looking for some fellow 16th (or close) sleevers. Our countdown is on!!

I'm nervous, excited and scared of how much pain it's going to be.. I'm going back and forth in my head should I do this? Can I do this? Can i follow my plan and get to my goal? I can't remember what it's like to be thin... it's been since highschool. I know i'm not going to back out since i've already dished out the $4000 max out of pocket that my insurance requires.

Anyone else having these feelings?

thanks- Kellli :/

Yes, I do. I am to be sleeved this upcoming Monday, 11/15 @ 7:30 am. All week I have been worried about the pain and not knowing what to expect. I was so stressed today I ate something I shouldn't have - only to feel guilty later. But I am tired f being overweight and feeling bad so I WILL NOT BACKOUT. Three more days - just three more days and all the wait and worrying will be over. Good luck to you and please keep us posted on your surgery and your progress.

I think everyone goes through those feelings. I still have to wait till February till I get my surgery, and I constantly am saying "Will I be able to go through with this?" Then I read all the different outcomes and I believe that yes I can and I will.

Nerves are a part of the course and I understand fully what you are going through.

Keep us posted on your surgery.
