I'm scheduled for 2/6/14. Who else is getting sleeved in February?

I don't like klonopin as much. Not sure why it doesn't work as well for me. Xany all the way! Lol.

See, and I'm opposite. I think Xanax is meant to be taken on a more regular basis, where klonopin is for people like me who take it really sporadically. But either way. Yay to getting calm when needed!

Nice! I used to take Xanax, but I love klonopin even more! Hahahha. Although I rarely ever take it.

Lol I have Ativan. And Seroquel for anxiety but I never take them. I asked if I could the night before surgery and they said not within 12 hrs of go time Bc it could mess with the anesthesia. Ugh

I took Ativan once. I slept for 16 hours! Hahahahahha

I had my last appointment with my primary care dr today! Had to do the pregnancy test as well!! My preop class was last Wednesday as well as my pre op visit with my surgeon!! So hard to believe a week from right now I will be officially on the losers bench!!!

I know!!! So exciting!!!

I'm at the airport ready to depart for my life changing adventure. My surgery is bright and early tomorrow morning with Dr Alvarez at Endobariatric. I am super excited and ready with a side of nervous. I lost 17 pounds on my liquid diet and I an hoping I fit in the airplane seat without an extender... I will report back in a few and let you know if that happened. Wish me luck! :-)

. Done with surgery, I've already walked around and am doing good!

Awesome!! Great on the walking! Keep being a trooper and continue to keep us updated. Lots of big smiles knowing you're doing so well

Hooray!!! You're looking good Kristin!

All my pre op tests are done, insurance approved surgery date 2/25. I have to be at the hospital @ 5:45 AM 1st sleeve of the day. I start my liquid diet on 2/15. I am a bit scared, nervous, anxious, excited. It also doesn't help that my wife is also getting scared and second guessing the whole thing, She is my ROCK and I need her support. She is afraid of losing me, kids losing there dad, or see me go thru this and it not work. I keep telling her I'll be fine and it WILL work, I will make it work. Good luck to everyone.

MrSleeve, I too have the surgery date of 2/25. I start my preop diet tomorrow. The closer the date gets, the crazier my loved ones are getting. Stay focused and steadfast, they'll have no choice but to get onboard.

Ha! And Ativan works for you but I don't feel a thing on it. Funny how it works so differently for others. My surgeon told me I could take the Xanax the morning of my survey. Bonus! Haha. Not sure I will have to but he said if I'm freaking out take it and let the nurses know when I check in.

Yeah, I think I can take klonopin the day if too. I will. Lol

After reading all this, maybe I'll "forget" my Xanax and ask for Klonopin instead!

If I need it I will take it. But I remember when they took my band out that they gave me some realt good stuff in my IV in preop and I sure don't want to miss out on that! Lol. Also my phone just tried auto correcting preop to Oreos. Hahahaha!

Why can't you take it but not tell them????? Bahahahaha. I'm just kidding. Now I sound like a druggie. I'm not. I only like klonopin when I feel like I'm gonna explode with anxiety. In fact, I really can't take drugs unless I actually need them. They make me sick if I take em after I'm done being in pain or whatever.

Buahahaha! We can be "druggies" together. If only they didn't make you sick. Bummer!
