Newbie!

I am having gastric sleeve next month. The nurse called today and I can schedule after Feb 15th...probably last week of Feb. I am doing self pay in states. My BMI is 36 5'6, I am a 16-18 pant size. My sister had gastric bypass in Spain about 15 years ago and my neice, nephew and brother in law had gastric sleeve in Mexico...so I am not really nervous. I think my main concern is excess skin being 43. I have never had kids and have no stretch marks but most weight is in belly. Anyone have tips that might help? Thanks
