I'm having my revision tomorrow.  Of course it's supposed to snow during the night...grrrrr - one more thing to worry about!   I'm getting nervous, just can't wait for it to be over and I'm back in my own house.  I'm trying to think positively.   I guess I'm nervous about not being able to eat the old comfort foods. I remember feeling that way before my surgery in 2004 - will I go crazy if I can't eat the things I want???  Well I didn't - I got used to things they way they were and my whole life changed.  I exercised and felt so much better about myself.  So, I'm trying to think positively and take one day at a time. 

So wish me luck - by noon tomorrow I should be on the losing side!!

I had my surgery on the 16th today is the 20th so I am 4 days post op.  So far so good I have had no problems holding food down.  I am eating waiting drinking waiting.    This morning I did eat a little to fast and my new stomach let me know.  It hurt a bit.

its been very cold and snowing the last couple of days so walking around my house as much as I can.  The weather was so nice before my surgery I thought I might be able to walk outside but cant.
by Saturday I am going to try to get to the mall and do some walking

Cant wait to hear from the rest of you.

Hey all you January sleevers!  Looks like I am the last, so far anyway......mine is this Monday, the 23rd.   I was doing so well with my diet...lost 17 lbs., but I find myself doing a bit of mourning-eating (eating like I will never get to eat this stuff again, thus the mourning).  I am getting nervous too, but really need to cut out this "last meal stuff"  Anyone have any trouble with that before surgery?

 I just the sleeve on the 13th and I talked to surgeon today and he said I could take gass-x

Hi Michelle.  I have to admit I don't know a lot about the sleeve, but wishing you all the luck in the world.  Weight loss surgery is truly a life changing event.  I had RNY in 2004 and did very well.  I started off at 280 and ended up around 160.  Over the years I gained some here and there, but in the past year I've gained nearly 50 lbs.  Long story short, the opening of the stoma has closed and a fistula opened into the stomach, so my anatomy is operating 'normally'.  So, I'm having a revision to fix it.  I'm anxious about it, but ready to stop the crazy eating I've been doing lately.

My surgery is on Saturday - Jan 21.  Hope we can all keep in touch and be a support system for each other!
