Any Oklahoma Sleevers

Good luck with everything' date=' Kimmy. The sleep study is NOT fun, but tolerable. You will just go home and go to sleep. Your six months will be up before you know it. Hang in there..... :)[/quote']

I liked the 2nd night of the sleep study... When they put the mask on. I had never slept so good

Hi fellow Okies!! I'm getting sleeved with Dr. Broussard tomorrow. I'm on my one day of Clear Liquids before the surgery, and I have so much more sympathy for the folks who were required to be on weeks of liquids!!! It's been just 8-10 hours of clear liquids and I already just want the surgery over with so I can get to some solid food again :) It's good to know there are several of us that have used WeightWise, and it seems like it's been a generally positive experience!

Good luck, OKSleever! I had a great experience with Dr. B. He did my surgery 3 weeks ago tomorrow. The surgery will likely be the easiest part of your journey. The adjustments it causes you to make, that the hard part...at least that has been my experience thus far.

Thanks for all the well wishes everyone!! Surgery went fairly smoothly; they found a liver lesion they think is benign but otherwise it went perfectly. Tolerating liquids really well, walking every chance I get, and hope to go home later today! Love WeightWise and Dr. B; would recommend them to anyone!!!!

Hi, aonthehill!! I'm still in my 6 month diet as well. They are thinking a July surgery for me. How far are you into yours? Where are you going to be having surgery?

Ditto to Kimmy's post! And personally I have my last appt with my NUT b4 surgery on May 2nd all of my pre-op appts are done and info submitted to the surgeons office so that after that appt they will be able to send everything off to insurance. We are thinking last week of may or first week of June for me... Every day my mood about it changes a little happy, excited, scared, ready to get it over with!!! I hope that I am one of the one's saying this is the best decision I could have made.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
