Calling all May Sleevers!



Recommended Posts

I have not seen a thread on here as it may be too early for the May sleevers, but I thought I would start one since I have a May surgery date!

Anyone out there getting sleeved in May?

I will be having surgery on Tuesday May 24th at 10:30 A.M. with Midwest Bariatric Solutions in Theda Clark Medical Center Neenah Wisconsin. Super excited at this point! I know the nerves will come soon enough!

Calling all May sleevers! Lets start this journey together!

Hi there!

My name is Karen and I will be sleeved on May 10 at Forest Park in Dallas, by Dr. Nick Nicholson. Its coming up quickly, isn't it? Yet it feels like its been forever since I started this process. Waiting is the worst part, and this site is so helpful in the meantime!

Best of luck to you, Kara!

I started a thread awhile back down in the Monthly VSG support group section, but I'm thinking maybe no one goes there?

I'm having VSG on May 10th in Mexico with Dr. Aceves. (Having surgery ON my 46th birthday).

I don't have my date yet but talking to the head of the bariatric program, it should be middle May. I will know more next week at my next appointment. I'm from Baltimore, Maryland. I am finishing up my six month dieting requirement now. I am alternating between being so excited and can't wait for the surgery to actually being a bit scared and anxious about the surgery. Plus I'm scared that I will fail and this whole process and any pain I go through will be a moot point.

I know it will be even a bigger mistake not to try because although I've lost 43 pounds since starting the 6 month program, I really really need help with Portion Control. I am so excited!

I'm getting so excited as well.... also nervous! Its about 75% to 25% right now.... I know in about a month and half it will be more the opposite!

Some days I feel like I just don't know what to expect so I come on here and search blogs for hours.... other days..... I feel I can't possibly take in anything new.

I think I will go crazy before this surgery! ;)

Omgosh! This post made me so happy! I'm on my 3rd month of my 6 month fat camp and am desperately hoping for a June date (the AMAZING insurance gal at my surgeon's office says it's a possibility!) so to see May dates posted makes me realize that there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Congrats to those of you with dates. Please keep us posted - I can't get enough info on this. :)

Wow... someone moved my thread? Confused.... as I was leaving a post and then it said it was deleted, then I found it down here in the monthy sleevers!

Anyway.... super excited for all of us with a May date! I'm glad we can go through this journey together!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
