There is I'm just upset. I have been paying so hard.

Well, Dr. Garcia did my mom and my sisters sleeve and he did an awesome job! I think the Mexico route is a great option to look into :)

Yay!!!!! Eight days and our lives change FOREVER!!!!!

1 hour and 30 minutes and I will be underway. Next time I log in I will be a post op patient :) been riding in a car over 4 hours already and won't be to.my destination for another half hour at least. .. so nervous I feel sick! Not so much worried about having surgery just the unknown of after. Please keep me in your prayers today

My prayers are with you this morning. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Tomorrow you will be on the other side of the journey and I will in your shoes. We've got this!

Still working towards the date of the 30th. Last week I did my stress, met with Dr Hooper, (surgeon) now the final touches! A preop diet class tomorrow , insurance approval. Then hopefully the 30th! I am so ready to start this journey. I have the support of my family, and the friends I have shared this with. I have chosen not to tell my coworkers at this time. One showed me a picture of her sister who had some type of gastric surgery and said let me show you a picture of her now! Didn't feel the live...lol.

Anyway we'll wishes to all on this LIFE changing journey.

Thoughts and prayers with you as you begin you journey!

Is anyone scheduled for Friday? I would really love to have someone to walk with during this journey. I have struggled through preop diet. I do want this, but I have truly had a hard time with my eating.

Talk to your Dr. I hear and am told by many that they didn't really follow pre op due to medical or simply cheating with bad food up until 3 days before surgery! But def talk to your Dr. 10 is still enough time to get better! Hope you get through this ASAP! Keep us posted :-)

@planetswifey: So sorry you're being delayed! Can't you reschedule your time off from work?

Hello, I just found this site. it is going to be great to hear from other people what they are going through with me. My surgery is scheduled for September 22, 2014. YEP in 6 days..... I am on the pre-op protein drinks and clear liquids also and my surgeon said I can have 1/2 cup of non-startchy vegetables a day. I usually have cukes and look forward to them cause I am so hungry!! today when I left a store, I just stood in the parking lot and breathed in the air cause someone was cooking steak or something and it smelled SOOOO GOOD..... LOL keep in touch, good luck!! Its a new journey never taken before, but will be better one day at a time..... :) Judy

I am sleeved!!! Surgery was pushed to 1:30 PM so I am 13 hrs post op n doing great???? I was in my room by 5 and up walking by 8. Got a little nauseous when I walked so the gave me some meds n was fine right away. I did take some pain meds ( prob why I did so great.... Lol) which interfered with my saturation levels a bit but fall is great now .

I go in at 9:30 AM for the Dye test so wish me luck???? h
