I am soooo excited that I made the decision to be sleeved. My surgery is May 15th. Since getting approved, several things have gone wrong at my house and for a second after each incident, I considered the things going on might cause me to delay surgery. So I wasnt allowing myself to get too excited about it. Now that it seems the dark clouds are passing, it's really starting to sink in...I AM HAVING LIFE CHANGING SURGERY....I cant wait to be on the other side of it!!! The anxiety/excitement is killing me!! LOL, I find myself feeling out of sorts today and trying to keep myself busy. I have worked since I was 16 but am now a stay at home mommy with only one left that stays home all day so I find myself thinking about surgery WAAAAAYYY too much...I feel like I am jumping up and down inside all day...hehhehe

Anybody else??

My surgery is may FIRST!!! FrEaKiNg OuT!!! It's just hours away and I think I'm in shock lol.

I am July 2nd and it seems sooo long to go. At the moment I'm under heaps of pressure at work and my weight is causing me all sorts of aches and pains that are just not helping with stress. I am really looking forward to the surgery but I'm also pretty nervous that I might be that "one" that is the exception with complications etc.

I'm in a similar boat to you Justsleeveme23 - the only surgery I've ever had was to remove my appendix when I was about 11- so I'm quite apprehensive too! No idea what it will feel like!

.I'm going to be on my own at home and also on my own for quite a while after the surgery while I recover (no family here and most of my friends will go away over the summer) so I'm hoping my few supportive friends will keep in touch.

Good luck Kellythestarr- hang in there!

i feel exactly like all of you. i have a 9 month old and a 2.5 year old. i cant wait to have energy and just feel good about myself. i want to want to take my kids to the park and to the zoo since i wont feel the need to be in hiding anymore. i get my date this thursday, hope nothing comes in my way to be sleeved by the end of May. Good luck to you all!

kelly-- Yay!! My surgery is May 1st as well!! Can you believe that this is the last weekend of our "old life"? It's so surreal. The anxiety does get overwhelming at times but I keep my eyes fixed on the incredible things that are about to happen.

Congrats to everyone on upcoming sleeves! We CAN do this

Only a few more days May 1st Sleevers!!! Ur almost there!! Whoooo hoooo!!

Is anyone worried about dying? I know the chances are really slim, but I can't help but keep thinking about it.

I'm also going to write letters to my husband & sons for them to read in case I die. I just feel like I need to be prepared. But i'm also the type that I've already made a spreadsheet of what to do with I insurance money in case my husband and I both happened to die at once. I just feel its important to be prepared

I think about it sometimes. Its like, I am not overly concerned about it but, I sure will be glad when I wake up and its over and I'm fine ya know...I have 4 kids. And 3 are from a previous marriage. Their Dad has been mostly absent from their lives as we divorced when the kids were very little so, my husband and I are all they have...and we are very close so I just don't want anything to go wrong...

My surgery is May 2.... i am so excited, anxious, happy, scared and thankful.....i have been in a wheelchair for almost a year because of my weight... I have had 2 back surgeries and the stomach weight makes it impossible to walk... My goal is "to walk again"!!! good luck everyone!

Good luck to you!!

I had by surgery this week on the 24th the waiting is a killer but it goes very fast my advice to u before you start your 2 week pre op diet is to go to the best restaurant and eat cause you will not be interested in food after lol...
