Hello everyone, I wanted to see how many May 2013 sleevers there are! What are you doing at this point to prepare for surgery? What are your stats?

I am scheduled for May 15th. So excited, but nervous!! I am currently 260 and my highest was 268 in February. I plan to get down to at least 250 before the two week Protein diet prior to my surgery. My goal weight is 150 which I haven't been at in about 7 years! I started my journey in January of this year. I was fortunate enough that my insurance approved me without requiring a 6 month monitored diet. I have a good amount of support, didn't start off that way though. First responses were "you're taking the easy way out", so I took them to information seminars which completely changed their views (whew!). I am extremely excited for the surgery because it's a new me. I can completely change my life habits around and start feeling better about myself physically and mentally. When I think back, I've realized my weight has kept me from making friends, going in public, and just plain living life!

I would love to hear all of your stories thus far and how your journey to getting sleeved has been!

Thanks!!

- Brooke

Hi ramirelek! I was sleeved may 7 and have my post op appt on Friday and wasn't knowing what to expect. I thought they just take the staples out?

What are the tablets for that they give you?

Where do you live? I'm in Australia MLB. I wonder if its different here??

The pills they give me is to prevent gall stones due to lossing weight so fast according to my doctor he prefer that his patients take this for six months after surgery like I said to prevent the formation of gall stones. I have no stapples all I have is like a white tape over the incisions. I live in NJ. Hope we can both share experiences with our sleeve wish the best to you.

Added myself again
