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?

Tomorrow is THE day. I have to be in the hospital by 7am. I am feeling all the different emotions all at once, too many to describe. Have to try to calm down and go to sleep. Goodnite everyone! Prayers for me please and all others that go in tomorrow. I am so thankful for everyone's advice and encouragement. You guys are the best! ;)

Loving my sleeve.

Preop: 256

Today (2 weeks out): 239

Feeling great. Pureed food, cramming in protein, walking about two miles a day, 50-60 oz liquids, 60-80 grams protein. Scars look fantastic. Not going back to work until Nov 4, and loving having this time to develop new habits and norms!

Is it okay to be walking that much at 2 weeks out?

I'm doing okay' date=' just having a lot of pain. No nausea or vomiting at all![/quote']

Press the button! Honestly, the pain was very short lived for me. Hope you feel better soon!
