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?

I was so weird yesterday. .. I think I just worked myself half to death! But after a full day of rest and lots of snuggles from my kids I'm feeling much better and totally excited. Gotta go get ready to have my surgery! Check in at 11am!

Good luck, good luck! I'm day 7 today - gotta take my dressings off in the shower. Had a sneak peek at one of the incisions yesterday - it's practically invisible! One thing I did learn yesterday - I can't eat kiwifruit. One mouthful hurt like hell! But I have lost weight every day, even if only a couple of ounces.

I read somewhere that the biggest weight loss occurs in the first 8 weeks. So I've managed to walk 3 km a day since the day I came home. Gonna try and work that 8 weeks!

How are the other Oct. 15th's going?

Good luck to everyone! I hope everyone is doing good. I had my follow up today with my doctor/nutritionist and I was so excited to hear 19 days post and I'm at 185 now. I feel great and they said it was time to step up my meals a day. Try to get to 6 small meals instead of three. I hope everyone is doing good. The journey is 100% worth it!

Anybody going to Tijuana the 23rd for surgery if so let me know so I can have a buddy

I have surgery on the 23rd too. Dr Lopez in Tijuana is doing mine at Mi hospital.
