December 15th! Gastric Sleeve Surgery , i've been waiting for 2 years now![emoji1]
I'm also having the Sleeve on December 15th...day 3 of my liquid diet...it's been tough but I just focus on the goal ahead[emoji4] Good luck[emoji256]

Going in for a gastric sleeve on the 14th at 10am. I have been waiting for the hospital to call and cancel because of Covid, but they just called to confirm, instead. We'll see if it sticks! ?

My Surgery date is Dec 2nd for the sleeve. I wanted the Sleeve w the duodenal switch, but the nurse misunderstood and scheduled the sleeve. What should I do? Will I lose enough w the sleeve and get off my meds?

Can you have them change it?

Got my insurance approval! Now I’m just waiting for my pre-op appointment. I’m starting liquid diet Saturday instead (I was going to start Monday!). I’d just rather be already going good before my pre-op appointment!

I’ve been so amazed by my post op experience this time around. My sleeve to bypass conversion was on the 7th December (originally was going to be a few days earlier but got postponed slightly). This time around I have had very little pain, only slight gas pain, and since coming home 2 days ago I’ve had a lot of energy. So very thankful for such an easy recovery (so far). Wishing everyone else here a speedy recovery / and good luck for upcoming surgeries!!

I’m going on the 14th as well. Our governor just put a bunch of restrictions back in place but luckily nothing to do with hospitals. So I am praying I get my call tomorrow after 2 like they said I would.

December 17th gastric sleeve procedure! Just started pre op diet today (se previous post) so glad to see others in and around this time!!! I’m excited and nervous and here to support anyone as needed!!!!!’ ?????

Got the call today, December 30th! Start my liquid diet on the 16th!

Just had surgery on 12/9 . Feeling good
