I'm scheduled for surgery May 1, 2017 and wondering if there are any fellow May Sleevers out there.

      It's so OK to be nervous, this is life changing. My 2nd journey started 4/3 with my pre-op visit - surgery was 5/1. Down 24 lbs since 4/3. Remember to stay positive, be prepared, and know that

    I had mine on 5/2 and came home 5/4. I had a great roommate who was also sleeved. We were on the same sleep schedule so at 3 am we'd ask each other questions like "are you burping a lot".? We also walked the halls together which really helps, both of us did not get gas pains. Only one dose of acetaminophen today and I'm sitting here drinking some prune juice proactively...I DO NOT want to get constipation. Oh one tip, take your liquid antacid one time, my tummy was getting very rumbly late this afternoon and the antacid immediately calmed it down.
