I had it done a year ago. I would do it again in a heart beat. It is life changing.

You will have mixed feelings. I think that is normal when it comes down to Surgery time. I started thinking of all the what ifs but it didnt add up to all the struggling I went through on all the different diets that you can possibly think of. I am almost 4 mths out and it was the best decision ever. I started at 233 and I am down to 167 today. Its Awesome!!! The first couple days are a little tough but so worth it. You can do this!!! Prayers your way!!

Hello Quita, my surgery is 9/25, right there with you. I was going to do the lap band at first because at the time insurance only covered lap band or gastric bypass. As time went on during my dr visits I asked if the sleeve was covered and it was. That's when I made my decision about the sleeve and I'm ready because I know in the long run it will be best for me. As far as the comments that other people saying don't do it, most will I had some co workers tell me the same thing because they think the surgery will make you look sick or old but you have to tell them that this is not he bypass it's different still they might not understand. Just do it for your health and just you and keep on moving.

Yes we will update each other. Do you have to do a pre op diet? I have to do a 14 day diet 2 shakes a day and a sensible meal and all the sugar free drinks and sf Jello.

Yes let's keep each other updated. Is your Quita? My name is Sequita. I have a 14 day pre op diet. 9/4 I have a nutrition class to go to. 9/17 I have to do pre op testing and admitting to hospital. Do you have any appts before surgery.

There is a thread about sept sleevers. You might check that out. I'm in Dallas,Tx.

Do you. Im getting sleeved Oct 4th I can't wait.

Congrats on your surgery date!

I hope we can make it through the pre op diet. Thank you but your name is just like mine just different beginning sound. I'm from Dallas, Tx. Where are you from? It's nice to meet a Quita twin. Growing up that's what all family called me. I take it that's what you were called also.

I think you are doing your surgery at a good age because you are young and not have to go through health issues like some of us that are over 40 ????. No matter what age we are, we all are doing this surgery to try and have a healthier life and enjoy it too. Nice meeting you too.
