Im in the OR waiting to got back. If you could say a little prayer for me I would appreciate it. I'm doing good so far. I just want this over! On the plus side my anesthesiologist is a cutie! Of course he is who else would you want staring at your big ol belly lol! Thank you all in advance!

You are just in the first few hours of post op. You may not be feeling great and may have concerns or second thoughts. The fear is normal. Don't let yourself get stressed out. Its a process. Accept you are going to have a few rough days, followed by weeks of learning. Soon.. you will see results and be glad to made the decision.

Prayers for good health

Blessings.

I'm so glad to hear you are doing so well, good for you. I hope you continue with smooth sailing.

Thank you guys so much! I am officially sleeved and feeling wonderful! No gas, very little pain and I'm up walking. Your prayers have worked! God is GOOD!!!

"Whereever two or more are gathered in my name, there will I be also." Even on the internet! Continued prayers for your smooth recovery and weight loss journey.

Thanks for all the sweet words and encouragement! I will be going home in a few hours. I must say I don't think it could have went any smoother than it did. I was blessed with an AMAZING staff! Everyone of them was exceptional. So guess who's getting a huge box of cupcakes!!!! Thanks for all the prayer and thoughts! I am just taking it day by day and keeping my stress level to a minimum. I have no regrets. I am staying in my learning phase until me and Miss sleeve become one lol! Blessing to you all!

Best of luck!!! You will do great!!

Is there anything you wish you would of known? Any advice for upcoming sleevers? So happy your feeling good!

@@time for june I felt like I had done soooo much research and read so many post there really wasn't anything that caught me off guard. I would just say try to remain calm and go with the process. I worried myself sick about gas and shoulder pain and I ended up not having either. I made a post earlier about my glade plug in for my hospital room, I know it sounds really simple but just having my room smell of apple cinnamon was more like home to me.I also found some soothing sounds/music On my IPad and I played it most of the time. All the staff made remarks on how lovely my room felt. Just try to make your self comfortable. Walk, use a binder, and most of all be kind to your staff And they will be kind to you.

@@Elode so happy for you! I start my new sleeve life Jan. 6th. Please keep me posted on your success????

After a hip replacement I developed a theory that after major surgery they send in the cutest nurse to remove your catheter. Does she know about "shrinkage"?!!

It's true! Every anesthesiologist I've ever had was drop dead gorgeous and had seen me looking my absolute worst. I think it's a rule that in order to be an anesthesiologist you HAVE TO be good looking

Praying!!!
