Hey everyone, I created a group for us May sleevers of 2012, please join! http://www.verticals...sleeve-buddies/

My surgery is just nine days away. I've been buying my protein and vitamins online. Besides my CPAP machine, I haven't really thought of what else to pack for the hospital. Suggestions? Also, there is going to be a birthday party at my house on the 19th, 3 days after my surgery. I'm trying to decide if I should just hide out in my bedroom or stay at a friends house that day. I have no idea how I'll be feeling 3 days post op??

I am having trouble joining can someone one help me out?

see if that works http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/groups/show/97-may-2012-sleeve-buddies/ I think you can only access them thru computers/laptops.

3 days post op I was feeling very good 4 days out I feel great. But we are all different.

Good luck to you On day four I cleaned the house, went shopping, went to the gym, and then to the

Vitamin store and home to play with my doggies. and I have been up 14 hours so far.

Feeling great still after a busy day

Thanks Nicki D and congratulations, sounds like you're doing great!

just got my approval letter today and I am scheduled for May 21!!!! I am soo excited. but I have a question. My wife and I already have a condo booked in Florida for week of 27, I will be traveling 4 days after surgery. Is that a bad thing? I will bring pillow, pain meds and just be riding not driving or lifting. I should be okay right????

Hi beach lover. We are traveling to Florida, my homeland, a month after my surgery. We are doing Disney World and Clearwater Beach. What they worry about is blood clots when flying. I have a shot for blood clots, so maybe ask for that to be on the safe side. Honestly, most people get their surgery done in Mexico and fly home 4 days later. So it is a hard decision!

Tomorrow is my day!

Yea!!!! Good luck tomorrow. Don't worry it will be over before you know it.

Thanks!! I'm really looking forward to it. Only bad thing...I have to work all night and my surgery is in the afternoon. It's gonna be a long day, but so worth it

If you are anything like me, you will be so pumped up before surgery you won't get a chance to be tired. Then you will have plenty of time to sleep post op.

Good luck ladynana. You will do great.

All done & back home!! Boy am I sore!
