I'm enslaved on May 15th and can hardly wait... I told my family and everyone has their opinion but I know I must do this for me. My husband is supportive and together we will embrace our future as I become healthier and happier be here for my grandchildren.

@ congrats!

LOL for the enslaved

The typo was oddly appropriate, ha. I felt "enslaved" by my weight prior to having the VSG, and weight loss has in many ways emancipated me physically and emotionally. Best wishes to you for a healthier, happier future free of what holds you back now.

Well my 5/16 got postponed today... Big bummer!! Had MRI for a headache that lasted a week... turns out I had a minor stroke - OMG! No damage thank God but PCP wants more testing. I'm certainly blessed they found out before I was laying on the surgery table! Hopefully it wont be put off more then a week or two.. I'm in shock actually...

Ye gads! Glad you found that out when you did.

Have heard many stories of pre-op testing that revealed all kinds of things no one would have learned had they not been prepping for WLS.

Congrats on learning about this.

God was in the plan and he had that to be revealed on your behalf. He is still in the miracle business. Just trust in him and he will heal you for the procedure. Thank God for no damages.

Are there any sleevers out there that are singers? I'm having my surgery on 5/24 and I'm wondering what it will do to my voice, since the sleeve surgery is done near the diaphragm (and everyone knows a singer uses their diaphragm- LOL!!). My singing voice is one of the most special gifts I possess and I want to know if my sound will change after being sleeved.

Thoughts?

The typo was oddly appropriate, ha.

This was my thought exactly.

So....Tues May 24 is the beginning of life restored and renewed... #SoReady

i know you didn't like the postponement of WLS

it was better to find out prob sooner than later

take care of yourself

good luck

Thanks ProudGrammy....Your words were so timely and came at the perfect moment! My surgeon just told a few minutes ago that my surgery has been postponed until June 6. I am so bummed out! Due to the minor stroke, my surgeon wants me to be cleared by a neurologist and that doctor isn't available to see me before Tues 5/24 (my former surgery date). AGH!!! Yes,, I know God is in control and I have to be patient...I've come this far so I can't quit. I'm just very sad right now...
