Anyone else having surgery around this date? I am beyond excited and nervous at the same time. It took 6 months but my insurance finally approved it. Anyone from Las Vegas here?

Congrats! We can be sleeve buddies. Mine is June 2nd...super nervous. I'm not from Vegas but will be going on June 30th .

I am so nervous tomorrow is my pre-op appointment and I get to find out what I have to do to get ready for the surgery. We should definitely be sleeve buddies I need some support. I haven't told a lot of people about my surgery just work and my close family. How about you do you have a lot of support?

Hi AnaTravella. From Vegas here! Had mine on may 5th. The sleeve. Who's your surgeon?

Thank you guys I'm super excited just don't know when my pre-op diet starts so I've been having a food funeral the past couple days lol

I am having the sleeve as well my surgeon is Dr Hanna. Who's your doctor? Did you already start your pre-op diet. I find the details tomorrow so I've been on edge all day today. I'm

It's no biggie but they didn't give me a preop and I'm surprised about that coz I was 277 and 5'5". My surgeon was Dr. Atkinson. Weight loss center. Had my surgery at Desert Inn hospital on the 5th of this month. I followed orders the first two weeks but I don't follow to a t anymore. That's bad. I still get all my Protein in but I had pain popcorn (not supposed to) and I had alcohol one night (not supposed to). Other than that, it's going great. When I first woke up, I immediately regretted it but now I am so glad I did it. I went back to work 3 days after.

Wow congrats! You are doing good. I am taking two weeks off because I'm not sure how I will handle all the pain and I work in an office sitting all day might make it even more painful. I think my surgery is at sunrise but I'll find out more details tomorrow.

Hey Ana, how did it go? I started my liquid pre-op today. I haven't really felt hungry. My husband and family are very supportive. I have been debating this for about 2 1/2 yrs so, it's not new to them. I hope you are doing great.

Hi! I found it that all I have to do is just meal replacements with one small meal until 3 days before surgery and then it's all clear liquids till the day of surgery. I'm doing ok feeling a little hungry but it's not that bad since I can still eat a small healthy meal. I think it's more mental than physical for me.

I forgot to mention I've been also debating this for the past 2 years so my family is very supportive but not many of my friends know about it just close ones.

I will be having mine June 4 its so close im a ball of nerves and all kinds of emotions i start my liquid diet on Saturday. Im near vegas live in Fort Irwin.
