Best of luck. I was the same way. Calm and excited at the same time. Day two sleeved and feeling good. Still have tugging pains in my belly but that's normal. Take it slow and follow doctors orders :-)

I would not be afraid to tell your family. I am glad that I did.

Good luck can't wait to hear how everything went

OK July Sleevers we are all either sleeved or getting ready for the big day. Hope all the "Sleeved" are doing well and recovery nicely. Good Luck to all that are getting sleeved today. To all the sleevers tomorrow hang in there and don't let the nerves get you! (me included, I am so nervous. I cant believe tomorrow is THE DAY!) Hope we all have smooth surgeries and easy recoveries. To all after the 23rd good luck to you too! Yay for July! Can't wait to hear how we are all doing at 6 months!

I am supper excited for you and can't wait for my day to come which is next week. Kind of nervous too but there is no turning back!!

This is Jeff, Paula's husband.

I wanted to let everyone know, Dr Gersin just came out and told me all went well and he was pleased with everything. She is in recovery and I will be able to see her in an hour or two.

I met with them right before surgery on the day of. They discussed my medications asked if ive had to be put under anesthesia before, and explained what they were there to do before, during and after surgery.

Can I drink crystal lyte in the clear liquid phase or just water? The term clear is really throwing me off. Thanks.

Yes to crystal light. Just don't use the "energy" flavors. They have caffeine. :-)

Great thanks. So, I'm assuming that I can start adding it to my water as soon as I have surgery also? Call me nuts, but I really can't tolerate the taste of any water since I started this darn liquid diet. It has changed my taste buds completely.

Hey guys I just submitted all my paperwork to the insurance and I'm waiting for the response. With everything going good I will be praying for a July surgery. Very excited to get healthy and live the life I have always wanted ! Good luck to all and I pray for each of us everyday !
