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

Good luck Kansasgirl!!! Be sure to keep us posted on your progress! I KNOW you have to be nervous as a cat on a tin roof!!!

Boots in Houston

Good luck Kansas. Wishing and praying for the best. Keep us posted on your progress.

Good Luck Kansas Girl!!

My stay is 48 hours I hope it will not be longer. I will need to come home to my babies all 6 dogs and 3 birds. Count down in 24 hours I will be on the operating table

Thanks any recommendations

I go in May 7th to Juarez Mexico with Dr.Rodriguez. This is my first surgery and my first time in Mexico. A little nervous about both! I will be going alone so my anticipation is increasing by the minute.

ugh. going in on Monday...my nerves are shot. The anxiety is killing me. I wish these shakes kept me fuller for longer than an hour!!!! On the plus side, going shoe shopping today with my Aunt for a brides maid dress. In my cousins wedding in June. TTYL....

Enjoy your shoe shopping! We'll make it through monday and each day will get better after that!!!!

Delta, you can do it! I'm on day 9 I think, lost track, my emotions are out of wack, of the preop diet. It's really not horrible. I have to force myself to get more than 600 calories a day in. The Protein shakes keep you pretty full!

Thanks for the motivation! I have been doing okay, I did cave in and ate a small salad, but thats because i did a hr in the gym, and after eating and drinking everything, I was STARVED. A 800 Optifast diet isnt made for any streanous calorie burning! When is your surgery??

I just watched your videos and I really enjoyed them! Good job we need all the info and support we can get.

Thanks! I'm sort of an information hoarder I found the YouTube channel wasn't enough for me to share what I was learning, so I've expanded to a companion blog! www.gastricsleeve4me.blogspot.com. Any other May sleevers, welcome your thoughts, comments, or lessons learned. Trying to assimilate all I'm readying into one place.
