The endoscopy Is a cakewalk. They sedate you and you pass out and wake up and it's over.

Well I've paid for flights, deposit and insurance and have to do a 2 week low fat diet with no alcohol ready for operation on 8th April, my only worry is that my passport won't be here in time. Its kinda cool though as I can't worry bout op as more worried bout passport.

Hi and welcome to the group!Good luck with your liquid diet, I am so happy I don't have to do that. I am in the UK, and my surgery is scheduled for April 14th!

See you all ladies on the loser's side soon!!!!!! ;)

Wooohooo time is going by so fast April Sleevers!! We're already in the second week of March. I'm in my last week of antibiotics, can't wait till that's over; however, it is preparing me for taking Vitamins daily. I know some people are still waiting for approval, or to start your two week preop (classes, doc appts, etc), or just waiting.. but, "Oh The Places We Will Go" Dr. Seuss, once we wake up from surgery! Yeah I'm HAPPY, clap along if you feel like happyness is the truth!! Okay sorry for being cheesy lol :)

Welcome to all the new comers!

I'm April 7th with Dr. Ortiz at OCC in Tijuana. I am nervous and excited, too. I hope it's the end of all the crazy ups and downs. I did HCG as well. I figure if I can do 500 calories of only 10 different foods for 40 days, I can do the pre and post op diets!

I am having my sleeve Friday, April 11th in Tijuana with Dr. Cabrera.
I have done A LOT of research and I feel very good about my decision.
I am SO nervous and very excited.

I have been too big and sick for too long & so very tired of losing 20 pounds for 2 months and gaining 27 back... we've all been there......no more HGC, Medifast, Atkins, etc.
I am so thankful we now have this as an option.
I wish us all the very best luck and health!

Hi April GSVs

Today is one month for me to go...(April 11th) I'm SO nervous....but this will be OK, I know God is taking care of us all.

Hey to our "Hoosier" ladies....I live in Las Vegas now but born and raised in Indy!!! Go Colts!!! And go weight....far-far away!!!

April 2nd!! Houston area! EGD Friday and next week pre-op and start a 14 liquid diet. I pray that all goes well for you all and myself. I'm very nervous, anxious but also feel that's its time for a change. My biggest weight was 308 and I managed to reach 205 on my own, took about 2 and half years. Just recently had a baby and am back up at235 and have tried dieting and excercise for the past year and it's been very hard with only a 20 pd loss.
