Hey sleevers! I'm getting sleeved this Wednesday by Dr. McCluney at St. Elizabeth's. So excited and so nervous! This has been a VERY long process and I'm just so glad the day is almost here. I'm hoping some of you veterans might be able to answer a few things for me.
-I quit smoking last month and I'm 3lbs over my recommended weight -will they still sleeve me? I'm going to try like crazy to lose 3lbs in 24 hours-but it looks doubtful.
-What was St. Elizabeth's like? Are the rooms private or shared?
-What did you bring with you- I've already packed my kindle, moisturizer, chapstick and gas-x strips. Anything else you wish you'd brought or couldn't live without?
-What was your best go-to food for the first 2 weeks? I've got a bit pot of turkey bone broth simmering away right now and i'll have some of that served warm with protein powder everyday. I don't care for bouillon or cup of soups-so I made my own. I've also got cream of wheat, SF jello, popsicles and pudding. I'll start browsing for more stage 2/3 recipes now.
Thanks for reading! Wish me luck!
I know they are great! My doctor is Dr Chahal I was sleeved on December 1,2014 . Did you have a stall I am having one now for 3 weeks now . I am back to writing everything down. So I can see where I am going wrong.
I had my surgery at Newton Wellesley also. My surgeon was Sheila Partridge. I was her 7th sleeve. Cannot say enough good things about that hospital!

Hey Everyone!
I thought I would share this with you all. You got to love when a big online magazine with 18 million followers steals your before and after, cuts your watermark off it and posts it to their facebook wall. 402,000 likes?!?! My facebook is flooded with hundreds of friends requests and emails from 120 girls asking me how to lose weight. WTF!!!! LOL!
Here is an updated photo from last month of my partner Lesa and I. Lesa had gastric bypass 9 years ago and has maintained her 130 lb weight loss! I had gastric bypass in 2011 and have lost 171 lbs!! On the left I was around 305-311lbs and on the right I weigh 140 lbs.

I had an ulcer in my teens and have been treated for reflux ever since-I haven't taken meds for it for a couple of years and have no symptoms-but bc it was in my medical history it was still considered relevant.
You're doing VSG and have reflux?
