So the day has finally come. I will be sleeved tomorrow morning!! I am very excited to begin my new journey, but oh so nervous at the same time. Need to settle my nerves before I back out! Please share some positivity

Ahhhhhhh! How exciting! You'll do just fine. No worries! All the worrying won't change a thing about your surgery! Just gotta trust you're in good hands and everything is gonna be alright. Maybe try to go to bed early so you can't think about it haha that's my plan

Good luck...keep us posted.i got my approval today .mine is between sept 10-23. Waiting on the doc to set the date..wishing you a safe n speedy recovery

Thank you both!! I will definitely keep you all posted. It's such a blessing to finally get this done. But for some reason, my mind is spinning tonight. Maybe early bedtime is what I will have to do:)

Woot woot!! It will fly by. I was sooooo nervous, especially over the anesthesia part. I mean full blown phobia, panic attack scared. But let me tell you....anesthesia is AWESOME. Didn't even know I was put to sleep when I woke up in recovery. I asked the nurse when we were going to do the surgery haha. They give you pain meds to help you through the night which were awesome as well. I peed all night because of the IVs tho. And I may have asked wtf did I do a few times but it gets so much better. If your nauseous make sure you ask for the meds. They help and no need to suffer. But it honestly wasn't that bad.

I was sleeved Aug. 27. A week ago today, I couldn't sleep a wink the night before and truth be told almost bailed.... It was no where near as bad as I thought. You will be okay! Just remember afterwards walk as soon as you are able to. I think it made a great difference. Today I would not believe I had surgery if it wasn't for the stitches on my tummy and the 12lbs weight loss in a week! Good luck sending positive thoughts!

Ohhhh thanks for all the support!! I really needed to hear These words of encouragement. Knowing I'm not alone in my nervousness sure does soothe me a bit . I figure I will probably have the wtf moment myself haha. And yes, today I've thought quite a few times about bailing. I will make it!!!

Best of luck!! I'm the 11th. My nerves have been all over the place. I've never been so emotional about anything before!

Yay! Best wishes :-)

But i know in the end, i will be happier and healthier. Having alot of gas and tummy rumbling. Dr says this is normal. Had some broth and crystal light this morning. Tummy making all kinds of rumbly noises even as im typing this....anyone else experience this??
