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

  • I was sleeved today. To be honest it wasn't that bad ( besides them not being able to start an IV after 3 tries). So they put it in my arm and not my hand. They gave me a sedative before I went into t

Omg..I am having the same thoughts (my surgery is scheduled for February 11th). I am so conflicted, lots of thinking to do:/

I'm feb 6th as well

Lillatin & Moutaineer where are you getting sleeved. I'm 2/6 at Mi Doctor in Tijuana.

Good Luck to all the February sleevers! I will be sleeved Feb 11th in Tampa and I start my pre-op diet 14 days before. My pre-op diet is 2 protein shakes then 1 meal with a baked or grilled meat with 1/2 cup of grilled veggies. My nut said if you need something else have a sugar free jello or a sugar free popsicle. I'm going to do the best I can and not stress or beat myself up ;).

February 4 surgery! On the pre-op diet and kind of enjoying seeing the scale move to lower numbers each day. Best wishes to you all for safe/successful surgery.

Wow, lotta February's. It's nice to see so many participating. Good Luck to everyone!!

Update for me;

Someone above stated exactly how I feel, excited, but nervous and wanna do this. I watched the surgery on youtube, that was a bad idea. lol. The tube is mentally bugging me for some reason.

Auto immune disease here too. Vertigo.

Hi,

It seems to be intensifying as it draws closer. I'm at the point just do it already so I can stop debating it in my head.
