I'm new here, my name is Krissy and I'm very nervous! Starting weight is 248 and it's my heaviest ever! I'm scheduled for surgery May 20 in Mexico! I got financed and paying part myself! It's about me this time! My kids are older and I'm divorced so starting to date again has been horrible on my self esteem! My time is now to be healthier and feel better about myself

I have lost 10 lbs so far. Can't believe the 20 th is almost here!

Good luck to you all for tomorrow, wishing you all a speedy recovery. Geez I'm so nervous, I can't sleep!!

I don't think I will be able to sleep either. I am already at the Hosptial in the hospitality room. Got to be down stairs at 5:30 am hope I can sleep a little bit

Sending out good thoughts and prayers to the May 20th sleevers. Please let us know how you are doing as you are able.

Good Luck to my fellow May 20th sleevers. It really seems like a dream that this day is finally here.

Had surgery yesterday, feeling good today. No nausea or vomiting (so far). Just tired because I never get a good nights sleep in hosp. Im just watching tv and sipping away. Been for a little walk and had a shower. This is heaps easier than I was expecting, so i guess I'm one of the lucky ones. Hope you are all doing well, check in with us when you feel up to it

I was sleeved Friday may 17, feeling much better today. Liquids going down nicely as long as I stay away from lactose bases shakes. This far I'm down 5 lbs since surgery and I fully expected to be up coming home from the hospital. Woo-hoo!

I am being discharged today. I consider myself lucky I was up walking at 12:30 and walked 5 times my first day. Had some pretty bad nausea from anesthesia but it is much better now!

I hope the rest of the sleevers are doing great!!

Mine is 2 weeks too not exited about that yay 05/20 !!

How was surgery for all of you May 20th gals??? I had my surgery Friday May 17th....

I had surgery on the 17th, as well. Came home Sunday. Every time I drank anything the first 3 days, lots of burping, and sharp chest pains. The have slowly gone away. Did anyone else have the same experience?

I'm having the same problem sleevedinseattle. Slight chest pains and lots of burping when I sip, this is day 2 post op for me, I'm hoping it goes away soon!

Thanks for letting me know I'm not alone. I've also had the WORSE case of the runs since Sunday, and I'm on heavy duty narcotics, I thought I'd be constipated. Anyone else out there with the same?

That just started for me last night! I'd read on here 'don't trust a fart for the first few weeks' a couple of times.... Now I know why!!!! LOL my husband found it hilarious... I could only laugh too because if I didn't I'd cry from embarrassment lol!!

Was sleeved on the 21St and home today. It had gone much better than I expected. Pain control was too much, had to ask for something less strong so I could function. Been walking around, sipping and getting up often. My surgeon just did 1 incision and that helps too. Good luck to all.
