Hello all! I've been reading the forum for the past couple of months, thank you all for the great advice and sharing your experiences. It's been very helpful and informative! I met with the surgeon a week ago today, my surgery date is June 26. Anyone else for June?

I guess I'll be leaving this group. Dr called yesterday and moved my surgery from June 7th to May 28th. Excited and scared.

Lucky you!

June 24th (:

Is anyone else going to be at IU North on June 11th?

My first post ever, been reading for weeks, but finally ready to post! My date and friends date is June 7 in Mexico. Today is first day of preop diet. 3 protein shakes a day with light dinner. 3 days out only liquid. So So nervous, can relate to all of you, but so so excited to start the rest of my life healthier. I think that's what keeps me from bolting for sure. Anyone else being sleeved in Mexico in June?

I had my EGD yesterday ... it went well other than a fat lip... doc said my inside is beautiful and it should be a basic sleeve..I told him it is time to match the outside with the inside !

Congrats!! My surgeon told me after my egd that I have "a really large stomach" I laughed and said "I know that is why I am having the surgery" he laughed too....he meant the inside of the stomach was huge and explains why my stomach growls all the time! Good luck!!

I guess all doctors are different because i never had a EGD or a endoscopy.

My doc said it was because I still have my gallbladder. He wants to make sure it's fine before the surgery. If it's making stones then it will be taken out as well.
