Hey guys!

I am from NY, Long Island area,and looking for other ladies that are going through the sleeve process in NY. I think it'll be a great way to support each other, share things and ask questions!

My revision sleeve surgery was just approved and my sleeve is scheduled for May 2nd! (I had a lap band that didn't work)

Email me and we can go through this together!!

I am confused, you open with "Hey Guys", however, you only ask for ladies that maybe going through the sleeve process.

Guys was used as a general term. No need to complicate anything here but also not interested in chatting with any men.

Thanks and best of luck to you.

Using the term "hey guys" is northern for "y'all." I grew up in NY and Va, so I speak both ;)

Just had my surgery on 2/14 - after my lap band failed - so welcome to the club! You're in the right place...people have been very helpful on this forum.

Just consider me the northern/southern translator ;)

I'm feeling great! So glad I am sleeved! I started gaining weight when my lap band failed, so I'm relieved to be on track again...

I used to think it was Yoose Guys in NY until I found out it was Northern NJ after all. Oh well.[emoji12]Most of you Empire Staters don't think there's land beyond Buffalo anyway and I'm clear out in Ohio. [emoji173] you all anyway!

The sleeve is quite different from the band. I experience more restriction, and I really have to watch out for sugar - anything too sugary makes me nauseous. There are other advantages, but the biggest one right now is I’m losing weight at a nice pace...


Starting weight 2008: 220
Surgery day weight: 160
Current weight: 148
Goal weight: 130

      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
