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?

You have to tell us what reactions you get. Going back to work smaller was a mixed bag for me- some people looked at me you could see them trying to figure out what was different. Most of the people who knew were okay, but some were intrusive and I could see them looking me up and down every time I would come around which for me was uncomfortable. Someone from another unit in the hospital heard I had gotten a tummy tuck (don't know how that rumor got started), came to my unit to find me, and actually touched my stomach and said how good it looked!! WTH?!? I know you're a guy so you probably won't have as many issues as the women do.

ditto, I go back Monday since Oct 18th! I just pulled on pants two sizes smaller..and I was shocked..so I know others will zero in on some marked changes in my face and body as well! I work with a mix if me and women and I am curious how they will handle any curiosity too!

Well everyone pretty much knew what I went out for so it's no surprise I'm not ashamed I did what I had to do to live longer healthier and thinner nothing anyone could say or do would take that away from me I went in on Monday after my doc appt and my he was like omg you look great so I'm sure that will be most peoples reaction any other s can go stuff it lol but tbh I had nothing but support before I went out so I assume it will be the same when I go back but I'll keep everyone posted its weird to me that I'm going back to work 50 pounds lighter then when I left 6 weeks ago
