Calling all May Sleevers!

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!

    The pre-op diet is hard today! 12 days till surgery day and today is the first day I've felt deprived with my full liquid diet. I think it's because it's the weekend and this is typically when my hub

Oh, just rub it in... lol... We got 9.5 inches here in Green Bay. Sure feels like its going to go from Winter to Summer with no Spring. Its crazy. I work in Appleton and love it way more then Green Bay. Feels like there is so much more to do, and Appleton is growing more and more every day.

My surgery is May 31st and I'm getting very excited, I am also having lots of fears as it gets closer. But I can't wait either way!

Mine is set for May 3rd with Dr Ehrlich in Connecticut. Only 1 week to go and I am hoping everything goes as planned.

One week and the month of May is here!!! Our new life is going to begin so soon. One week til my surgery and I'm excited, nervous, anxious, overwhelmed, and simply happy all at the same time if that's possible. I start my 5 day pre op liquid diet tomorrow, blah not excited. I am just going to readily assure myself that it will all pay off soon. To all May sleevers best of luck with the nerves, pre op diets, and surgeries. To getting slimmer this summer!! B)

Just got my date today: May 17 for surgery, May 6 for pre-op. I'm hoping to get in earlier because my schedule is completely flexible and I can take a cancellation appointment. I've been working towards this for so long! Last November I met with my Dr. and told him I was interested in the band. Thank goodness I looked around on the web and found out more. By the time I attended the WLS Overview class in January I knew I wanted the sleeve. Today I threw away my Weight Watchers log. Yahoo! I hope to be in Onderland by June!

May 9th for me!!!!!!!!!

And yep, the nerves are definitely setting in....and the urge to eat anything and everything I can get my hands on! :blink:

This surgery has always been SOOOOO far out of reach for so long, that I am having a hard time believe that this is even real! Whatever you do, DO NOT WAKE ME UP!!!! ;)

Hi, I'm getting my surgery on May 10 in Tijuana with Dr. Kelly.

My surgery is May 19, in Wagga Wagga by Dr Harrison, can't wait!

You're getting sleeved the same day as me!!! I'll send you good thoughts that day.

Wow, good wishes to those that have already had surgeries this month and to those with upcoming dates! Mine is May 17 with Dr. Castro in Dallas. Will say a prayer for you tomorrow morning Avalinn. Hang in there Kara! Been watching you on you tube, love the blog. The EAS Protein coupon(s) have come in handy. I printed out 10 of them!

Thank you Holly! I'm doing better this week. Thank you for watching my videos! I appreciate it!

Hi Holly,

We are scheduled for the same day: May 17. I have my pre-op this Friday. I'll be getting sleeved at Kaiser Fremont in Northern California. Two weeks to our new tummies!

Lynda

Yes Lynda, we will have to keep up with our healing, successes, progress. I start my liquid diet this Sunday. How about you?
