My Sleeve Surgery Is Scheduled For March 4, 2014



Recommended Posts

I'm scheduled for my sleeve on March 4, 2014. Can't wait but am also having some anxiety, especially after being laid off yesterday. I guess I should just consider it a blessing to have a longer recovery time instead of only a week. :rolleyes:

congratulations on your surgery date but sorry to hear about your layoff. Hope losing your job doesn't have any affect on your surgery. Good luck.

Being laid off won't have any impact on my surgery. My insurance is through my husband so I am lucky there. My last words to my boss were, "if you do call me back, make sure it's after March so it won't interfere with my surgery". LOL

March 4th seemed so far away when I first spoke to my surgeon in September. I honestly can't believe how fast time is going. On my third visit with nutritionist and 3 more to go. Time is flying by!

I agree. What once seemed too far away now seems a lot closer. At first I was disgusted with the long weight but I now realize that is a very important part of the process and gives us a lot of time for reflection and planning not to mention research and using these boards. lol Good luck to you and enjoy your time off work.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
