February Sleevers

I'm set up for February 4th. Seems like forever away. People keep telling me, "oh don't worry". It bugs me cause I'm not worried. What seems to keep popping in my head is, am I doing the right thing.

I would like to here what others are thinking, going through.

My Doctors plan is two days preop clear liquid, not 10 like I've been reading on here. Anyone else similar?

Thanks,

Kimo

Way to go, Kimo!

A lot of sitting around waiting if it's like mine!

Awesome. Will make sure my phone is fully charged so I can play Temple Run and browse these forums all day.

Had pre op visit on the 5th of Feb and surgery is scheduled for the 27th!! Im not to happy about my surgery. I have a lapband and during the surgery my doc messd my stomach up so I HAVE to have the sleeve...But got to thinking about it...On the plus side I dont have to do fills anymore and wont have to worry about a foreign body in side me screwing up anymore!!! I guess Im mpre upset that I have to do another surgery...Scared and afraid of things that can happen with this sleeve...I really havent done alot of research on the sleeve like I did the lapband..lol guess all my esearch has lead me to were I a right now.Good Luck guys...Hope all Is well with all of you...I just need some major encouragement!!!

Good luck to all sleevers this week!!!

Good luck today Lisa, I'll be keeping you in my prayers for an uneventful surgery today.

Best of luck to those being sleeved today!!!!

Starting pre-op diet today (1200 cal's a day). Surgery is scheduled for 2/22. Only have physical and final blood work to do. The EGD left me with a sore throat, which only lasted two days. Hard to concentrate on anything else.
