I just wanted to introduce myself. I am Leslie from Cincinnati. I am getting sleeved on July 12! I am soooo excited and nervous. My surgeon is Dr. Curry.

I can do a poll in another thread. We should come up with a few ideas:

Maybe:

-Sizzling Sleevers

- Sparkling Sleevers

-July Firecrackers

- Red, White & Blue Crew

- Lucky Number Sevens (July being the 7th month of the year)

I'll post a poll with these and a "other" option

Cool!

OMG!!! More great names. Thanks for offering to conduct the survey.

HI everyone,

Sheila here. I am having my sleeve done on July 27, here in Canada. Dr. Lawrence Farries is my surgeon.

I am so excited and ready for this surgery. Not only will I be sleeved, but I will have my gallbladder removed as well as a hernia repair. I am getting a 3 for 1 deal.

The next 6 weeks will be exciting.

Hi,

I am getting sleeved on July 19th with Dr. Rogers at Hershey Medical Center in Hershey, PA. I am getting so excited!!

I'm Heather, my surgery is scheduled for July 20 in South San Francisco, CA.

I can't wait... I was originally scheduled for June 22, but I got a cold the week before surgery and we had to postpone, then my doc couldn't get me in for 4 weeks. I'm a little bummed since I'm supposed to be waking up in the hospital today and have a tiny tube shaped stomach, but I'm still sick and I know even if I had no complications with my cold, coughing like I am with a bunch of holes in my belly would not be fun.

I'm also getting my gallbladder out when I get sleeved.

July 18th for me!! Yaaaaaay! Come onnnnnnn July!!

Im having surgery July the 6th in louisiana! Im very excited! Im ready to clean out my closet and dresser and put new smaller clothes in there! I have clothes from YEARS ago that i said maybe one day I can get back in them>>>>>well thats right around the corner now and I cant wait!! Congrats to all of us!

July is just a few short days away! We are almost there! I am soooo excited. I am even excited about starting my pre-op diet cause it just means I am that much closer, I am sooooo over being fat!

This is awesome! It seemed to me like everyone was from out West on here but we have quite a few July East Coast sleevers. I'm from SouthWest West Virginia so I'm really close to you Ohio folks. We should definitely keep in touch for support. Also, I go to Cincinnati and Columbus on a regular basis (and not JUST to go to Plato's Closet for my daughter!) so if you make any great food finds, please let me know. I could really use some good portable snacks since I work full time and go to school full time as well as being an 'active' mom (she's active and I'm her mom!).
