November Sleevesters?



Recommended Posts

Surgery scheduled tomorrow at 7 am. I've been fine until now. As I sit I'm the airport I feel tears welling up...I'm a bit overwhelmed with emotion. I'm extremely proud and happy for taking this step yet nervous as hell abt surgery its self. This is a big deal...my life is getting ready to change for the better. Virtual hand hold hugs and prayers are needed :)

Hugs and prayers for you!

I was sleeved on Wednesday:) My swallow study showed things weren't moving through my sleeve as fast as they should be so I have not anything to eat or drink since Wednesday morning. My doc is talking about worse case scenario being re-operation with conversion to bypass if things don't start working soon.. Turns out my stomach and now my sleeve is shaped like a letter J and the contrast is slowed by the loop at the bottom of my sleeve I have had no nausea or vomiting so my Doc is going to let me try some liquid to see how it goes... Pray for me that everything passes through well and I don't need re-operation...

Approved! Aetna approved on first time, 3 weeks turn-around. I have BMI = 39 + 2 comorbidities. Official surgery date set for Nov 20th! Getting a little nervous...I've had months to think this through, just hope it's the right thing for me.

Hi sleeve sister so is mine! I'm very nervous and I'm sure will be very emotional as time nears! But I do echo your excitement! Prayers coming your way!

      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.
