  • I confirmed on Monday, March 2 going to get sleeved!

  • Hi Everyone. I apologize I have not been on. I had my surgery on Monday and had my IV's in for my liquids and pain meds. Day 2 was rough for me. I could not handle sips of water or oral pain meds. Eve

    My daughter turns 21 tomorrow and up this point, it has been all about her. So, I decided 2015 was going to be all about ME! I'm scheduled for March 3, 2015!!!

Me me me!! I just had my surgery date confirmed today for March 9 as well and I am the first case that morning at 7:30am :). While I am excited, I am also a tad bit nervous too! While I have had two prior c-sections, I am still nervous as all get out about the post op time immediately afterwards!! I really do not want to be nauseated or in a ton of pain! I am looking forward to getting my life back on track, to being able to breathe better at night when I sleep, to having the lymphedema in my right leg improve, to being able to exercise longer without being so out of breath, to helping my heart become healthier and stay that way and to being able to get into some of my smaller sized clothing!! Are you nervous? What are you looking most forward to?

@@Thankfulmomof3 I am looking forward to being healthy, to being comfortable in my own skin, to not having DDD boobs that make my back feel like it is going to break, to no more hip pain, to having more energy, to being able to have more fun during "sexy fun time" ;) I am ready to for my second chance at a better life and I am looking forward to trying on new clothes and not feeling worse after I leave a dressing room. I am really excited!!

Had my first appointment with the surgeon today and found out that I am scheduled for surgery on March 5th! I am starting my pre-op diet on the 19th. I can't wait! Best wishes to all!

I am confirmed for March 2nd, 2015!!!

March 5th!!! :D

My surgery is scheduled for March 17th. I'm 90% excited and 10% nervous. I feel like I'm so ready to get this started that I wish it was tomorrow. :)

I'm March 18th. ???? still need insurance approval though

I'm scheduled for March 4. Going to see my doctor and the coordinator tomorrow. I am assuming that I'll get orders to get my pre-admission testing done and also to get my Protein products. It hasn't really hit me yet that as of today, my surgery is exactly 4 weeks away. Maybe after the doctor's visit tomorrow I'll start gearing up. I'm actually thinking of questions to ask the doctor and coordinator. Good luck to all the March Sleevers!
