January 2013 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Hey all! I'm new around these parts :D

My surgery is scheduled for January 7th and I was wondering if there are any others schedule for the big day in January 2013 ...?

Just submitted paperwork today to bcbs federal so hopefully I will be approved and scheduled for the beginning of Jan 2013!

Mine took a little over a week to get approved by the insurance. I'm scheduled for January 30th. I need to see the dietitian again and the surgeon once again. I was kind of upset cause I was expecting the surgery to happen late December or early January :(

Hey everyone! My surgery is Jan 10th at 7:30 am with Dr. Bauman in Concord NC. So excited, but extremely nervous. Not so much about the surgery, but the recovery and learning to eat slower, dreading the pureed stage, etc. I know it will be ok. But, I tend to be a bit of a worry wart. I just think too much. B)

My diet is very simple... Unlimited Protein, 2 fruits, 2 vegetables and 2 starchy carbohydrate for 2 weeks.

Ok, so it probably varies quite a bit from surgeon to surgeon. I don't have a diet, I was just told nothing but Clear Liquids from noon till midnight the day before surgery.

That's awesome! I wanted to lose 45 before surgery but my loss has slowed to a crawl. I'm at about 33lbs down with what, 3 weeks to go? And let's not forget Christmas glaring its ugly head at me lol. I'm making tamales on Christmas Eve. That's gonna be a killer. My date is jan 9th by the way.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
