December 2013 Sleevers

[LeanMeanFightinMachine 38]

Approved for the Sleeve! BUT... I had to have another prior authorization submitted with the RNY procedure because of Barrett's diagnosis. Ugh! I'm scheduled tentatively for the 30th. I'd hope that an approval for sleeve would translate to an approval for the bypass.

I'm being sleeved on Tuesday and everyone around me (including my sisters and husband) seems to have a bad cold. I'm worried that, if I get the cold, it will be postponed (and I'll just have to continue the pre-op diet for several more weeks).

My doctor actually advised me at my last pre-op consultation that if I am not feeling well or think I may be sick at any time prior to my surgery date to make sure I call the office because it may have to be rescheduled. So with that in mind, I have been trying to steer clear of anyone with so much as a cough. Lol. Try to avoid them if at all possible!!

chocolate Milk gets me through, I put it in a cocktail glass lol although I can tolerate sugar, they do have sugar free Syrup. Good luck

Thanks! I may try that. The sf candy made me nauseous. I'm thinking of purchasing a yonanas machine later. Think that'll b an awesome tool.

It's is so hard to not eat and drink together. I just had Soup at Newks and I had to wash it down with Water. I'm full as a tick, which is great, but sometimes I don't see how you can avoid a sip!

Tomorrow (December 31) is the day I have my surgery! I'm very excited and nervous. I have been so wrapped up reading "The Big Book on the Gastric Sleeve" on Kindle and reading the post on here that I have neglected to see how my girlfriend has been holding up emotionally. We are good now...I hope. See you all on the Post Op Forum tomorrow afternoon :-)

Tomorrow is the day!!! I'm super excited. Can't wait to start this new journey. @life2celebrate I was wondering about getting that book on my Kindle as well. I have heard some great things about it. I think I'll get it too!

I'm getting sleeved tomorrow at 1:30. A million thoughts going through my mind right now. Good luck to everyone who is going in tomorrow.
