July 2013 sleevers

[stacy03 50]

I'm in southern ohio' date=' but going to Columbus for my surgery. I would love to have a buckeye nut as my sleeve buddy!!![/quote']

I'll be your sleeve buddy! I'm having my sleeve on the 1st in Indy but am a buckeye at heart! I'll actually be in cbus the weekend before my surgery for my bridal shower and my best friend's baby shower! Will suck since I'll be on liquids only but am excited non the less! What hospital are you having it done at?

I have spent the past few minutes reading this thread... This journey is so exciting for me and its nice to see other people just as excited for themselves... I will have my date this week and have been told ill have surgery before the end of the month... Seems like the road here was a long one but its made me prepare mentally for this amazing change... What a fabulous summer we are all going to have ????

My friend is also negative which is surprising because she's had a tummy tuck' date=' facelift, etc. if she says anything else I'm going to let her have it. Smh.[/quote']

OMG see this is exactly what I am talking about... Here we are super supportive of our friends and they can't do the same for us what's wrong with that picture?! Frustrating!

July 1st with liquid diet starting June 24th...Went today for my pre-op. Dr Kim is my surgeon. I think I am going to have a "food" funeral say goodbye to those things I no longer wish to place in my body and embrace the new life I am going have~ Excited however; would be a liar if I did not say I am also nervous~

Well isn't this a coincidence... My surgery was scheduled for the 2nd, now changed to the first. There will be a lot of sleeves done that day. Think it may be related to the Fourth of July and your Doc wants to make sure he/she can make all the cookouts!

I'm scheduled for July 1st too!

I told some of my co-workers last week because they are like my family. Most were very supportive but now it's crickets. Maybe they are just worried. My hubby and I both researched this and feel good about my decision. That's all that really matters.

I love the idea of a food funeral. I did that with cigarettes when I quit smoking- it was very emotional. I'm excited and nervous too! I'm scheduled for the 16th.

My doctor's office called it the "farewell to food" tour, and they strongly discourage it. But I have seen to several restaurants and thought "won't be eating here for a year or more".

I KNOW it's the right decision, it's just a big decision, and that makes it scary!
