Sleeving for Thanksgiving!

Me and a friend of mine will be getting our sleeve on Wednesday!  I guess we'll be getting turkey... at least broth, for our Thanksgiving dinner.  We're excited and a little nervous.  Does anyone think that we'll feel like doing some Christmas shopping on Friday?  I love hitting those after Thanksgiving Day sales!

Congrats on getting your sleeve. I didnt have the sleeve but I know that with my rny I was still in the hospital at that time frame.

Hi, Stacy.
I'm very excited for you. I did really well with my sleeve, but I sure couldn't have gone shopping. You might be in better shape to start with, though. I do know that there are no restrictions, really. The paperwork just said, "If you do something that hurts, STOP." Perhaps with frequent rests? I think you'll be able to tell that morning. Just don't push yourself, as there will be many other day after Thanksgiving sales. :)
Blessings,
Mary

Hi Stacy!  I can't offer an answer to your question, but wanted to wish you & your friend the best of luck!!!  I'll be sharing the turkey broth with you for Thanksgiving.  My sleeve surgery is Monday.  I'll just miss you in the hosptial.  I did ask Dr. B if I'd be feeling well enough to go to my sister's on Thanksgiving (3 days after my surgery) and he reassured me that I'd be fine.

Save some Turkey Broth for me. I am gonna make some Cranberry Seirra Free popcicles..sounds festive to me. I love that stuff just cant have the carbonation yet so I gotta freeze it. Good Luck but I seriously doubt you will be doing much shopping.

You won't be shopping on Friday, sorry! Good luck with your surgery!

Maybe on the shopping.  I was at Target on day 3 myself.  It was short trip and I was pretty pooped.  Maybe pick one "must" store.  You really don't want to over tire yourself.  Remember you will have just had major surgery- even if it only left tiny holes!

Good luck!  Happy Thanksgiving broth!

Forget shopping or forget the sleeve. cause you will not even be able to want to go Friday. I have had 9 surgeries in one year and the only one where I flet like doing something right after surgery was my wound one....
But hey congrats on getting sleeved..and maybe turkey broth be the best you ever had....I would be happy to make some for ya...

Hey girl, I will see you and your friend bright and early Thanksgiving Morning. I know where we can get plenty of broth. LOL. Best of luck to you on Wednesday. See you soon, Rita
