You'll be kicking butt and doing great by the wedding. You're attitude is awesome

Congratulations! I'm sure you'll do fine.

My surgery date is November 6th too! And my birthday is 4 days later on the 10th. What an awesome birthday present we are giving to ourselves!

HI! Congrats on your upcoming sleeve! I took one week off and returned to work( a desk job). I was tender but doing well. The only thing is you have to be very careful that you are able to get up and stretch and walk every hour or so because risk of blood clot. I have had a pulmonary embolism due to this from a prior surgery, so its no joke.

Taking 3 weeks off from work we have fmla and short term disability so I'm excited!!! I saved 4 vacation days as well. I return to work Nov 26th. I too have an office job so I will definitely keep that in mind I work at a huge toy company and black Friday is like our #1 day. My boss said I can work it only if I'm cleared by the surgeon I am tempted because we get double time and a half but only if I'm well enough!!

Ahh... Sleeve sisters and co- Scorpios! I have surgery on the 6th and birthday on the 15th! A great way for us to begin a new year with the new us.

Good luck!

tatylish,

Since you will have been sleeved 2 weeks prior to your brothers wedding, IMO you will be especially conscientious of NOT eating those nasty foods - you won't want to mess up

having WLS one day after b'day - great motivator to enter your 26th year of a better healthier, happier life

good luck with WLS

speedy recovery
