Oh yippie, I'm in Greensboro. Who's your surgeon? I went through central Carolina.

My surgeon name is Dr. McGowan. I went to college in Gbo though. Woohoo Spartans.

Ask if the hospital offer vitamins maybe cheaper if not come on to Greensboro Westly long has them cheap.

Just finished my preop appt, my surgery is Tuesday. Everything is done and ready to go. They said they will keep me until Friday. Thats their norm so to pack accordingly. Think I have that part down. So just have to wait to 2pm Monday to call for report time. They have you come in 2 to 3 hrs prior. Not sure why except they said it's major surgery. This is a military hospital. Excited, nervous here in GA.

August 23 here too! Surgery twin

So I'll introduce myself - I'm just joining the group!

I'm having my surgery on 8/23. I've been in the program since 8/17/17. I had to go through some extra psych visits to deal with some binge eating issues. I just started my liquid diet yesterday. It's much harder than I imagined. This weekend worries me because I know how much harder it'll be to control any eating when I'm home versus at work.

I just got sleeved yesterday @ 7am
Spent a few hours in the recovery room I was sent to a private rom started sips of water I've been waiting a lot, Thank God all

Followmysleeve on Instagram good luck all

I was sleeved on Monday, August 6. Went home the next day. Feeling good...get tired easy and can’t get in all my protein and water but I’m told water is more important at this point. Staying active and off pain meds by Wednesday. I just wish I knew when I’m “full” as I am afraid of leaks becuase apparently you don’t know when you have one which seems odd. I don’t want to eat too much (we’ll drink) and cause more problems so if anyone has some advice there, it would be appreciated. I’m probably worrying about nothing.

My cuts all are feeling fine...even woke up on my stomach last night so I know those are heeling well.

August 6th !!! Me toooo! I’m not able to tell when I’m full . I drink my protein first then any other liquid I can. I also gave jello, soup and pudding. It’s working but I don’t feel hungry or full!
