I have to say I found out that day time tv sucks and so does all the movies out right now. I am so bored!

I just got home from Hospital and everything went great. I am sore but feeling good otherwise. no nausea or too much gas pain. started walking a few hours after got in room and trying to keep up with fluids. I came home with the drain but it will be removed monday and staples out thursday!!!! I am soooo ready for the weight loss to start, well I am tired so gonna go rest will keep you all updated!!!!!

Congrats beachlover! Glad to hear everything went well.

I agree day time tv sucks. I don't even care for evening tv unless it's a Dbacks game or HBO.

I went and saw "what to expect when you are expecting" at the theater today. It was good. The trailer made it seem like just a comedy but there was more to it. I don't have kids and still enjoyed it. I'm thinking of seeing battleship tomorrow. Anyone see it yet?

TV did suck at the hospital thank goodness for my computer and Hulu. Have not been to the movies in a while I do want to go see the Avengers and Dark Shadows soon I hope.

:) I am getting my sleeve May 25th. :)

OH YEAH!! Still a May sleever!!! I was suppose to have my surgery May 16th but a spot on my lung delayed that, prompted a biopsy and totally threw me into a tissy! Everything turned out ok and my new sleeve date is May 22!! Just 3 days away - i'm SO excited!! :D I hate that everthing happened the way it did (VERY stressful!!) but am kinda glad at the same time - i knew i wanted this but having it delayed and not knowing how long it would be before they could get me back in really drove home how BADLY i want this!! No nerves for me yet, just pure joy that it's happening so soon!!! :)

Good luck everyone!!

I was sleeved May 7th. Yes, they do have you up and walking the same day of surgery, and you know what? It wasn't that hard. I had my 10 day post-op visit with my surgeon this week and told him that I already felt better physically than I did the last time I was in his office, which was 4 days before the surgery. My knees didn't hurt, and walking was so much easier for me, even in just so short a time.

Good luck, everyone! :)

Thank you. I am glad to have this forum to talk with everyone. Good luck to everyone.

After 2 tries, on the third one I finally got my insurance approval. Getting sleeved Tuesday, the 22nd for sure!! Now, I don't gnaw my own arm off during the pre-op liquids only diet, I'll be fine! So totally excited. Best of luck to all the people getting sleeved on Monday!

I've been watching Netflix streaming videos & Amazon Prime instant videos & reading some. I like movies since I can walk around the living room while they're on, but it's hard to hold my book & walk!! I'm doing better every day though!

Ok ok I'm sorry for just getting back with everyone, I was sleeved on 16th and everything went wonderfully well. Now I'm about to rock this sleeve with y'all!!!!!! This is one of the best thing I have done in life. Next to putting God first in my life and having my daughter now this what a new start life I have!!! Thank u Jesus for another !!! Chance!!!!!!! Lady's we ROCK!!!!!!!

good luck on your surgery, and keep us posted on your recovery. I had mine done 17th, still have drain in, it will come out tomorrow. but I can't tell if I am hungry, or if gas is moving. had a couple of bouts with nausea since I have been home but haven't thrown up. Are any of yall hungry?
