UT Medicine at westover hills San Antonio. I am finishing up my day today at work and will be off 4 weeks. But I would like to come back in 2. How about you?

After MANY obstacles I finally got my approval! A 4 day turn around, yay NJ Horizon!!! August 17th!!! I'm soooo excited!!

Just got sleeved on Monday. It went just fine and I feel great! I plan to go back to work week after next. Wishing you all the best.

August 20 here with Dr.Pleatman. Live in NJ but I'm traveling to Michigan

I am scheduled for my surgery August 14th. I'm super excited but getting a bit anxious as well. I'm going shopping this weekend to be sure I have all the liquids, Vitamins, Proteins, etc. I'll need.

I'm on day one of the pre op diet. Thankfully I am allowed some things other than shakes. I'm fighting a headache but I think that is my household being busy, running since early this morning, and not near enough Water.

How is everyone else doing?

Drink alot of water and powerade zero that what I drink and sometime too much water but since I am diabetic I am always thirsty lol...

Day one here also! I woke up with a migraine so I can't speak to the headache, but I've never been so tired after getting a decent night sleep. I think I need to spread my calories out better, I was trying to save some so it didn't look weird when I go out with friends tonight. Did anyone else have this problem????

Pejela, Thanks, it's always good to know that I am not alone, and that I didn't pour my heart out for nothing. My surgery is one day after yours. Wishing you the best of luck! I am going to Tijuana, flying from Saskatchewan, Canada on Wednesday. You will be a day ahead of me. Are you going to Tijuana too?

@@Geron Girls, and @@volgirl, could your headaches could be from caffeine withdrawal? Cuz that can give you a nasty headache that doesn't respond to medication.

I'm scheduled for Aug 24th and I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. I start my preop diet on Monday!!

I haven't been able to drink a lot of caffeine for years. I think mine was the weather and lack of sleep. Good point, though.

I got sleeved yesterday! Everything went great, took me a lot longer to come around after than expected! I also lost 7kg from my week pre op diet yipeeee! Still in hospital and get discharged tomorrow! Still on water at the moment, for all people who are doubting having it done, believe me it worth it! X
