My date is Dec 3rd. I'm so afraid and excited. I wish I could just get this over with. I'm mostly afraid of the pain after the surgery which is crazy because I had twins with no epideral. I'm also worried of extra skin, I have about 100lbs to loose. Then again I'm so excited that I can work out and play with my kids without being out of breath. I feel like I'm going to chicken out sometimes. I feel overwhelmed sometimes. I'm glad I'm not the only one feeling this way.

Hay Mortensen! looool i'm having my surgery same day.I feel the same way except i thing i feel more excited. I'm just sick of being big.I also have about 90 lbs.to lose

December 10th is my new sleeve date. Looks like Santa will be packing surgical steel and a lathoscope!! The figgy-pudding is going to have to boiled, strained and pureed!! Still less than pleased about the catheter... no one needs to down that chimney... quick quick quick. Next post hopefully will be in the car headed to the hospital. Goooooooooo sleevers!

SLEEVED!!!!! It wasn't easy, but then again nothing worth having comes easy. The first might was rough, getting up and walking was the best counter measure for the gas pains, thank creation for morphine pumps. Second day drinking Water and juice was difficult , a cap full works. My doctor told me I would fell 80% better the third day and he was RIGHT!! sleeping (just relaxing and resting seems to be the key as well! Don't be discouraged, you repair rapidly!!

Well, I must say I was pleased with out come. Healing good, body is responding nicely and the gas is milder. No pain meds since noon yesterday. I'm moving around great and hitting the mark on the breather. To my surprise I'm getting Isopure done almost better than Water. I don't want to jinks myself but trust me It's nothing compared to what your mind would have you believe.

Highest 265 low 254.4 gain back 256.4

Checked in at 256.4

Checked out at 257.4

Checked today 253.6

Can't wait to be released for workout!

I wish the remaining sleevers the best of luck. This is the best thing you could do for yourself!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
