I would like to schedule my surgery for the first full week in March once my insurance is approved, any other March Sleevers in the building?

My surgery is tomorrow at 8 am and I'm SO scared its ridiculous! My hubby tells me I'm a big baby.

Good luck tomorrow, I go tomorrow also, but won't have a time until after 3:30 this afternoon. I'm not as scared as I think I probably should be.

Oh and I don't think it ever really seemed real until after it was over lol

Kaleen I agree didn't seem real until I was being wheeled away from my hubby and into the operating room...God is good everything went well and I am home. I give thanks and honor to man above for watching over me through this process! I hope everyone else had good procedure and are doing well!

Good luck to all those being sleeved today, sending good vibes your way!!

Congratulations to all of you, it sounds that everyoone is getting thru their surgery. I went to the hospital this morning for my pre-registration at 8:50 and never left until 11:30. My dr. office did not fax my paperwork to the hospital. the girl at registration had to call the office 3 times to push them to get all forms faxed. I even called and they still took their good old time. I had not had anything to eat and did not bring anything with me thinking I would be in and out in about 45 minutes so I had to stop off at a local restaurant and ate a dish of cut up apples and a salad with cheese on it for protein so there went my liver detox. What can I say???

I just found out I have to be at the hospital at 6 am tomorrow! I'm the first case, and surgery is at 7:30! WOW!

Good luck, BigDaddyJoe as tomorrow is the beginning of a new you. Send well wishes your way

Had preop today surgery will be at 10 am on March 20th I have to be there at 8... Liquids start on March 15..training class was nice i met 2 others having surgery the same day ....

Anyone try the isopure? I bought 6 bottles, at GNC, I opened one, and it didn't taste that bad!

Just wondering how it fills you up or keeps the hunger away.,,

I bought some the other day and I agree, Not that bad. I just was sleeved yesterday and am home. So far, no problems and just starting to sip on one for my clear liquids and some protein. I think I will buy a case from Amazon. I'm thinking these things could be a recipe for success in the first couple of weeks. The more protein we can get, the faster we will heal.

That's great, BDJ! We will be sending good vibes your way!

I can sense the excitement (and nerves) on this thread. Can't wait till we're all done and safely on the other side. A patient recently sleeved by my surgeon has had a bleed and it is making me even more nervous. I am wondering if it is a sign I shouldn't be going ahead with the op.

Also trying to get my head sorted for the preop diet beginning Tues (12th) I am so doubtful I can do it.....

Argh how negative do I sound? lol

Time for a bit of positive thinking me thinks....x

Sending positive vibes to everyone for tomorrow

I am one to have excitement and nerves. I go the 12th. Been on my preop liquid diey for a few days now. You can do it! I just keep reminding myself of all the rain I have choosen this and all the reasons I WILL NOT FAIL!! You can do it!

I had my pre-op today, I was cleared for surgery. I am on day 3 of the liquid pre-op diet and I feel tired but over all okay.

I am however, a little bummed that when I went to the dr today I had gained 3 lbs. =(

Can someone please tell me if this is normal. I am scared that I won't loose the weight my dr asked me before the surgery.

me! I'm March 13th - next Wednesday. I just submitted my final pre-op paperwork and I was given the green light. I was told I will hear Tuesday what time to show up at the hospital. I cannnoooootttt wait. I started my pre-op diet last week and I've lost 11 pounds so far. I'm so excited!!

Helllllllo,everyone I miss chatting with you all but I'm back had an great experience,Dr.Almanza was great not jus him but the entire staff I have nothing but good things to say,if I say one bad thing i would be lying.I fell a 100% better and the best is yet to come with my sexy body....Lol
