Im A May Sleever!

Anyone else going to have their sleeve in May? I'm excited and now the nervousness has set in. I am reading a few posts that people are in the hospital for like 3 days. My dr said I would only be in the hospital one day. And that I would walk the same day as my surgery.... Is this something they tell everyone or should I plan on more than one day there? Either way, my life changes May 16th and I'm excited :)

I'm having mine done in Chicago on May 16th as well. Not nervous at all. Just anxious. I can't wait to get on the other side of this surgery! I'm headed to the Bahamas next week so that will help some of the time go by quickly. I would have had it sooner but didn't want to be on any diet restrictions while I'm vacationing. I need to be home first to get used to the changes on my eating habits. Best wishes to all the May sleevers! (-and everyone else too!)

Im having mine with Dr. Almanza May 24th

Have fun in the Bahamas..thats one of my favorite places to visit!!!
