Had my pre-op visit today and was given my date. November 6. Very excited. :-)

I am scheduled for Nov 9 and also nervous about the procedure (fear of pain) and the new lifestyle ( will I have head hunger and will I be able to manage it?). I also am nervous, being male, about the catheter being painful (some say it is and others say "no big deal"). But I am going to push myself through this fear and nervousness. Other people's stories on this forum have been very helpful to me in working through anxiety. Post-op I will try to share my experience. I do not know how soon after surgery I will have the energy to do it. But I will take my laptop and phone with me. Hopefully the hospital will have WiFi.

I remember siting in a dental chair for dental surgery for which 31 numbing shots were needed. Before the procedure started I felt a moment of panic but I worked through it. And by focusing on being calm, the pain of each injection was greatly reduced. I plan to use that same technique (sort of a meditative state of deliberately relaxing my body) as I am wheeled into surgery. I wish I could describe accurately how it works. But it really does help.

As always, I wish everyone on this forum a successful weight loss journey.

I will be sleeved Nov 6 as well! For now I'm more excited than nervous. I have had a lapband for 9 years and it has never quite worked out for me. I am 32, live in Chattanooga TN and am a hospital pharmacist. I'm excited to keep in touch through this journey we are all going on! I'm 5'6" and 220lbs.

I am November 12th. 5'4" current weight 229. Starting pre-op liquid two weeks out. I feel I am mentally ready. I have been looking at food so much differently now. I find it hard to watch other people shovel food into their mouths at work. I hope everything goes well for everyone - let's all post as soon as we can right after surgery...good luck!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
