Tomorrow is the BIG DAY. Full of anxiety of the unknown, prayerfully all goes well. :-)

Hello mine is today, I can't sleep because Soooooo, nervous. I'm really scared. My husband doesn't makes it any better, with the negativity. I tried to clean my colon out so I don't crap on the table. Packed and ready to go. I don't know if it's anxiety, scared-ness , fear , or all of these above.

What time is your surgery set for. The colon cleanse was the worst. I didn't finish all mine, I had about two cups left and I fell off to sleep (head was hurting). It was just too nasty. I think my taste buds have already changed. My surgery is set for130, I'm very nervous. I know it's just anxiety and we are going to be just FINE.

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE THAT IS BEING SLEEVED TODAY. THIS IS A NEW BEGINNING FOR US. WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER. We will be in pain together and losing together. And good luck to all future sleevers.

tell your husband to kiss your ass!

I had mine done on 12.12.13! I feel like I'm doing ok. The pain has not been terrible, and I had been worried about it.

Mine is at 4, have to be at the hospital by 2. So nervous! I didn't have to do a colon cleanse nor did I have to do a pre-op diet. I've been so nervous that my stomach is going to be full when I go into surgery! I know God will have I backs and He will have the last say in all of this and see us thru... Good luck Ladies, I will see you on the sleeved side this afternoon...

Prayers are with y'all!! Keep us posted. Mine is jan 6 so I start my liquids Monday! I'm so excited but scared too. It's still a few weeks but I read and read on here and get freaked out. But I want to change my health just don't want to destroy it in the process...anybody else feel this way?

Friday, Dec 27! I'm so excited! The only thing I'm nervous about is that tomorrow is my pre-op appointment and my fear is that something is going to come up and postpone my surgery. Praying everything goes well tomorrow :)

I wanted eat soo bad yesterday. I here now my surgery schedule for 3:30. Listening to hear me roar by, Katie Perry. I need motivation . I will stay in touch with all thanks for the support. As for my husband I think he is more scared of the end results. Competition!!! Men hate it.

Lol,

Good luck to all of you who have Surgery today and upcoming surgeries. Some Nervousness is normal. But praying that all of you have an easy Surgery and a speedy recovery.

I'm 10 months out and it's been a wonderful experience. 93lbs down wish it was more but I'm still loosing! From a size 24 to a size 10. My blood pressure went from 170/102 to 102/60. I love my sleeve.

Good luck and Congrats to all.

Well, due to the snow storm in Northern NJ I didn't get sleeved until 8pm last night. My surgeon said everything went great and I passed my swallow test this morning. Been every nauseous since I got out of surgery, the nurses thinks its associated to the anesthesia and not my sleeve. Did begin my liquids around 2pm today.
