hi kim

First off you're not going nuts, I still think about my sleeve so much during the day. So very anxious. Its perfectly normal. It seems like I've been waiting for the big day forever - Its finally almost here :tongue2: My DOS is 12/6/11.

There is so I'm still trying to learn about after the surgery, thats what i am obsessed about. I know i have to drink shakes for Protein, but i hear that many can't keep that down and H20 is preferable at 1rst. So many other questions with reference to eating. So as you can see, i'm obsessed by the sleeve too, and i'm not nuts...well maybe alitte. kathy :seeya:

This is a major life change. Of course you're obsessed with it. Didn't you obsess over having your first child? Yes, you did. You probably read everything you could find, worried about having the perfect nursery, and tried to insure you'd be the best parent who ever lived! :) We all do it and it's normal.

I suggest you read the thread about what to take to the hospital and that you explore the forums about other specific questions you have. The answers ARE here and, if you can't find them, lots of us are ready and willing to answer questions, too.

Good luck to both of you!! :)

Girl, I feel the same way. It is all I can think about. I was scheduled for 12/6 but the insurance still has not got my approval through, so I lost my date. It has been moved to 2/14/12. That just gives me that many more weeks to obsess and to drive my family nuts. But this is a really big deal to me. I feel like it is my new lease on life and that I am being given a second chance to do things I never had the opportunity to do before because of my health and weight. I am VERY excited to say the least.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
