Hey guys!

To my fellow sleevers that already had surgery can you give any advice on what to pack in my hospital bag?

Also I can't decide on whether to buy an Apple watch or Fitbit, to keep track any opinions ?!

My surgery is Monday April 10th and I am soooo nervous!

Good Luck to all of you!!

Mine too! I wasn't feeling too nervous all this week until today it's just hitting me. Good luck with your surgery!

Getting sleeved on April 9th... really nervous considering I'm pretty young (16) but hopefully all goes well!




Good Luck! I hope your family and friends support you all the way. Best wishes from Australia :)

I think I'm leaning towards the Apple Watch

I find my Apple Watch much more useful than my Fitbit. It gives you alerts throughout the day if your sitting for too long, or when you have reached your goal/s. The other great thing is while your exercise you can answer phone calls without trying to race for your mobile. I am a health worker and find it great for when I'm on call. Plus that Apple Watch is easy to change the bands.


Just sleeved on 4/5. The first day was very rough and painful but things have been smooth sailing since! Little gas pain, no naseau, and no headache. Worst part is the soreness and pain on my incisions. I am also extremely tired but tonight couldn't sleep at all. Best wishes to all!
