surgery date

 I got my surgery date Feb. 15th!!!    Dr. Farhan is my doc and I am having the sleeve.  I am super excited but nervous at the same time.  I start my pre-op diet on the 31st.  
If anyone has any advice for me I would appreciate it.

Wooooooo Hoooooo!!!!  Congrats on getting a date... It won't be long now and you will be on the loser's bench.  Dr. Farhan and his staff are awesome, you are in good hands.....  Good Luck!!!!

 

HUGS,

 

Well congrat's on getting a surgery date! I know that's very exciting to have that date to look forward to.

I had the sleeve 9 months ago (April 16, 2010).  I have went from 354 lbs to 225 lbs so far...minus 129 lbs total.  I'm still losing, and hope to get under 200 by this April.

My advice would be to just be prepared to follow all of your surgeon's instructions, and keep a positive attitude.  Take it day by day, and don't get stressed if you stop losing weight a few weeks after surgery.  It's very common, and you will start losing again!

I'm so excited for you! I was super excited about getting my date and am still excited about the weight that is dropping off! You will be right there with us soon. You have our support. Keep us updated.

And listen to Dawnie, the doctors and staff are your best resource, use them. But remember, we are here for you too.

Congrats on your date!!  It will be here before you know it and you will be on your way to a new you!!  It is a journey, but one that will be worth it!!   Good luck to ya!!
God Bless,
Tari
