Hi, I just joined this group and got my date this week for surgery. I'm also scheduled on 5/21. So much to do in so little time.

May 21 also

May 6th here!!!! Super nervous but, excited too!!!!!

A few weeks ago I was really stressed. Now that I have a date I'm oddly calm about it. I also prayed about it. Asked if it was the right decision for me and that I'd not have any life threatening complications, to help me feel calm about my decision. So far so good!

May 21st here! Nervous but excited!

May 8th with Dr Oliak in Orange County, CA. Very excited...know the nerves will come, but feeling confident :-)

May 1st here in Houston,TX. On day 5 of preop diet. Down 13lbs since Tuesday morning. Down 21lbs since started on the journey.

When I was scheduled for Lap-Band I was very anxious and could not calm down. Now that I'm having the sleeve instead I'm very calm and feel it's the right decision.

Well Cindy, I'm scheduled for my band to sleeve revision (after already replacing the band once almost 7 years ago) on May 11th, so I couldn't agree more that you're making the right decision going with the sleeve instead of the band!! lol Had the sleeve been an option (at least one that I was aware of) back in '06, I could have avoided a whole lot of wasted time and money!! ;) Best of luck!!!

Aspiring-Thank you. The more I read the more I hear stories like yours. I am self-pay, so I have to make the right decision first. The main reason I did change to sleeve is reading all the posts on this site. Thank The Lord for this site. What a blessing. You guys are helping so many people.

Hi, May 21st here too!

Me too! Yeah for May 21!!!
