The four of you are up for the challenge today. As always, I hope you all are well rested. Some of you were up posting into the wee hours of the AM! Anything to calm the nerves is all right. I pray that the lord keeps you near him while undergoing this procedure. Lord, please take away any fears that these ladies may possess at this time and instead replace it with faith and serenity. We can do all things through Christ. Bless their surgeons hands and his nursing staff. I pray all of your families are supportive in your decision and continue to be as you transition into the new you!

So ladies, some of you are at the hospital already and some of you are on the way.

GO FORTH AND BE SLEEVED. Be excited and we will see you on the "other" side.. sleeved side that is!!!! Best of luck to you all!!!!

Good luck doll! You are actually right near where I live! Blessings and let us know how you feel when you can!

Made it thru suegery ok. I have had very little nausea. Came home late tuesday evening and now just trying to drink plenty of fluids. Very sore but getting better by the day.

Just got sleeved on the 17th of dec....and the pain is bad but I'm managing.

I've arrived, they're taking me in to prep. Mom and cousin is here. They're more anxious and nervous than me.. Keep me in your prayers. Oddly I'm the calmest I've been all week!

3rd day post op was finally to get some rest had major diahera this morning couldn't drink much Dr called me in some liquid phenorgen finally slept today and have been earring a green icie and sipping water all day ! The only thing that I'm ready to get rid of is my drain tube and this liquid diet other wise its going good hadn't had no pain meds till this evening and that was just because its Norco and its got Tylenol in it and I startwd running a low grade temp and its gone now !

Surgery tomorrow! Weeeee! We're in Eagle Pass Texas, chillin' until tomorrow when I will have my surgery. I HOPE it is early.

This hotel here though. Yeah.... Anyone who is planning to have surgery with Dr Alvarez, Eagle Pass is interesting. When Rosie stops midway between San Antonio and Eagle Pass? GET SNACKS. I'm so serious. The vending machine has all of 4 items in it. Really. 4. Pitiful looking. The ice machine is broken but thankfully the soda machine works. Got some water. We tried to get some Chinese delivered.... They stop delivering at 2. We didn't get to the hotel till after 2. It's just a block up the street so no big deal, but they didn't have anything that I wanted (namely broth) available. I was hungry and grumpy by then.... The clerk got evil glares.

Other than that.... Life is grand. Nothing after 11:30. Hungry but I'm saving my last protein shake till close to 10 or so.

I think GoodE2shoes is my surgery buddy!
