I am scheduled to be sleeved July 9 in Mexico. Three weeks later I am scheduled to go on a two week vacation with my husband and kids to the Dominican republic. I considered canceling but I think it is the kind of vacation where I can sleep all day or just sit on a beach chair if I feel bad, or do more if I feel up to it, and the kids are excited about going. I'm planning to bring lots of Protein shakes. Am I crazy? What should I think about that I have not considered?
Am very nervous about the surgery. I considered doing surgery after the vacation, but I'd have to put it off a few months because of work commitments. I am so ready to do this!
Advice welcome.
