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

They just told me no red nail polish. They prefer French manicure if we have anything but they have nothing in the pre op paperwork about no polish.

Welp I'm wearing red polish so off it goes lol.

Hey everyone

Getting everything ready before heading to the hospital :) can't believe this day is here omg!!!

Me too! Just want to do it already!

Good luck to all of today's sleevers!

thank you!! I think I'm gonna have to run to target and pick that up tomorrow!

I have had my Ninja for two years and love it. What I am finding though is for now I need to puree little jobs which the Ninja is not doing so well. I am purchasing the bullet to get me through the pureed stage and it is small enough to take to work with me.

Wal mart has something like the bullet for $20 and it works good. Best $20 I've ever spent. Congrats to all being sleeved today.

The ninja I have came with 3 different sizes so it works well.

And what I did when I ate something.... like sweet potato soup I just pureed 2 or so cups at a time and then put the soup in ice cube trays and then I put them in snack size bags in freezer marked. So then when I return to work I just pop a few out of the freezer and of I go with my little baggies of food.

Good luck all you 25th sleevers

Today is my day. I'm excited nervous. I didn't realize how nervous I was until my stomach starting feeling anxious. Today is the start of a new life. Good luck everybody.

I was sleeved on 2/19 and incision pain is not an issue for me. However, gas pains are still pretty severe. I am told that it takes a week or two to subside completely.

Yes just try and clear your mind and keep calm. And before you know it you will be on the other side of it. It will be rough going for a short time and then it gets better every day! I'm 11 days out and I'm feeling freaking great!

Best of luck and a speedy recovery

I gave the baby bullet and it blends up a small serving very nicely.
