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?

This sets u up for an increased risk of infection. I would be upfront with the surgeon so u can weigh the increased risk.

Father I have sinned and I repent' date=' plz hear my prayer on behalf of your child here. You know exactly the outcome of this and we pray for your peace and protection over "awalsh" while being in the hands of her surgeons nd caregivers. We ask Father that you guide the hands of all those involved in the care of this procedure, that it may be a blessing for now nd the future. You are the gr8 Physician and we know that You are in charge of our ultimate care, so with that said, let us have Faith that Your child will do gr8 w a speedy recovery. Ease the anxieties and give them peace of mind, body n spirit. We love you Father. It is in Jesus name I pray, Amen.

God Bless, nd luk how ur doing as soon as you can, ur gonna do gr8! Xxxx, Dee Dee[/quote']

Oh my!!! You better PRAY THAT PRAYER!!! I felt that all up in my spirit.. I almost thought I was sitting in the sanctuary of my church or in prayer meeting. Powerful

I was sleeved on the 11th also and was just wondering what everyone else had lost. I've also lost 10 lbs in 6 days!!! That's just crazy! That's a total of 58 since January.

I was sleeved on the 10th and down 14 pounds. No complications on my end either. I thought something was wrong because I feel normal. I guess lots of us June Sleevers scored;)

Sleeved on the 11th too. Down 12.5 and feel fantastic. Hoping to get soft food approval tomorrow! Looks like June was/is a great month for sleevers!

I'm also scheduled for June 26th. I'm having it done in Tijuana by Dr. Corvala . Luckily one of my best friends is going with me and staying with me at the hospital . My husband is very supportive but needs to stay home with our boys. Mind you, my boys are 21 & 16 but have some baseball stuff taking place that one of us needs to be there for. I'm very grateful for my friend. I am very nervous. These forums have been helpful.

Well, I started my pre-op diet Friday June 14.. So far so good... my doc has me drinking 2 protein shakes & 1 healthy meal per day... I haven't weights myself since starting but my last weight was Thursday 6/13 @ my Dr apt. & I weighed in @ 233lbs. My scheduled surgery date is Friday June 28! I'm still trying to get ready & am in utter disbelief that its coming so fast. I'm excited & nervous. So far the process has gone so smoothly. Whew! It's really happening. Thank you all for your openness on this site/app. You've all helped me in ways you probably wouldn't even believe. I'm just excited to start the next chapter of my life.

We have the same pre op diet. I started a pre-pre op diet on 6/5 replacing one meal with a shake, then 2 meals replaced with shakes on 6/12...On Sunday night the scale said I had lost 10 pounds, but then it said I gained 3 on Monday...crazy....i drank a Lot more Water today and will tomorrow so hopefully the weight will go back down. I liked losing 10# better than 7, lol......but will take all I can get!! Good luck when you weigh in!!

Tomorrow's the day!

Wow that's fantastic I'm being sleeved Friday and I'm little upset that I haven't lost anything on my pre-op liquids so far but I feel less bloat I'm 270 lbs and want to get down to a goal of 150 . Any secrets you can share with me because you really did wonderful!! Thank you

What does it mean when you lose a couple of pounds but a heck of a lotta inches????

Surgery was June 4th, started @ 248 down 222...June 19th...a lot of inches in the mid section...

What does it mean when you lose a couple of pounds but a heck of a lotta inches????

What phase are you on?.....could mean you're maintaining your muscle and losing fat....or gaining muscle and losing fat.....sounds lucky! I feel like I'm at a stand still two weeks out of surgery....I wake up in the middle of the nite starving! I start puréed on fri....hoping all that changes and i start losing weight and or inches....best of luck to u!
