October Sleevers - Who else

I got my date (October 15th) and my insurance approval. I'm excited and nervous. Who else is being sleeved in October?

Well my husband had his surgery Oct 11th (Friday) and it's now Sunday (Oct 13th). And he is home. He has had really no pain, or nausea. But lots of gas. He is on the clear liquid but it's not filling him up. He still feels hungry. Anyone else experience this and if so what do u suggests

I have felt like this. My doctor said that its normal. But not to try to eat more. So basically what I did was eat Greek yogurt in a blender with a banana and almond milk unsweetened and with ice. It hit the spot. Felt thicker and made it better. Also I had some cream of mushroom soup and it made it better. Good luck. It's part of the process.

Less than 24hrs left b4 surgery! I think I'll wash & detail my car for the 3rd time again this weekend.

Good luck and prayers on your surgery. Too bad you do not live in Columbus cause my car could use detailing! :-)

October 28th with Dr Benjamin Tanner in Louisville! Start 1500 pre op diet tomorrow.

last day of pre sleeved was wonderful. I have to be at the hospital at 5:40am eastern for my surgery at 7:40am, so off to bed I go I'll wake up 10 mis before midnight and down me a couple of glasses of water. He he he. Thanks for everyone's support getting me through the pre op phase. BRING IT ON! As Miss Patti LaBelle sang "its a New Day!"

I did the same thing- the last thing I did was down a big bottle of water. I knew it would be a long time before I would be able to do that again. Good luck tomorrow :)
