Any Oct 6 Sleevers out there?

I am scheduled to have my sleeve done on October 6th (started the process on March 1st, 2015.) I'd love to have a "surgery buddy" who is having the procedure the same day or very close to the date. Anyone interested?

I am a little up and down today too.

Welcome Jeannie. How are you doing? Are you ready for the change?

Nerves have been up all week but for some reason I feel much more at peace this weekend. Maybe I got it out of my system. Hehe. At any rate I'm sure I'll be nervous as heck again on Monday morning. Surgery is 2:15 pm Monday. :D

Let's check in on Monday. Mine is set for 10:30. Wish I had some medication to relax my nerves. Maybe tomorrow I will be better.

Can't sleep. Counting sheep didn't help. My dog has bad gas too.

I have got to call Monday at noon to find out what time I'm supposed to be there Tuesday. .pray for very early..I don't think my nerves can take a late time

I'm going to get a full body message for all the women that are on this thread that are getting sleeved this weekend. You have to come to Duluth though. Marcia and Nancy are grandfathered in.

What thing are you looking forward to after you lose the weight? One of mine is shopping and not having to be limited to just the XXL size and that size has a very limited number in stock. Searching the shelves for the biggest size or looking for just the longest belts is what I want to leave in the past. What about you guys? ;)

Looking forward to finally getting a new job! Everything I have applied for in the past few years I have a great phone interview then the in person interview is over in 5 minutes and suddenly I'm not right for the job even though I looked great on paper and sounded great on the phone.

I'm Monday October 5. Finishing nearly 2 week of Optifast and will be on second day of clear liquids tomorrow. I am nervous although I have thought about this for such a long time.

I've been so hungry through the liquid phase, I can't actually imagine not being hungry!

Well I am a newbie and obviously having trouble posting. My surgery is october 5th. I am very nervous. I have done only so so on liquids and protein with little weight loss. I am always afraid that after going thru all this it won't work. I need to keep a positive thought tho as I am sure is half the battle. My family is supportive.

Plan to pack a few things tomorrow and get ready. I still can't quite believe it's going to happen til I actually wake up and it's done

Welcome Ragedddy, 27 hours away for me and I am ready. Went shopping yesterday and I'm all set. Make sure to bring your medications with so the hospital pharm can tell you if you can crush or cut your pills.

Welcome to the family :) I'm tomorrow too. It definitely doesn't feel real yet. I know what you mean. Good luck. We got this.

I'm tomorrow... I have all kinds of feelings going on right now. Started my process May 22,2015 and here I am finally going forward to become healthy and prayerfully getting off these meds..

Welcome deevan
