My largest incision was sunk in too. My surgeon says it was because they stitched inside. She said it wouldn't be sunk in forever. I did have a lot of pain bending over and getting out of cars. But mostly when I moved wrong. I couldn't get out of bed without help either for a few days. I didn't have pain or burning al the time though just when I moved wrong. Hope that helps.

I was sleeved at 2 yesterday and I went in at 1015. The nurse tried to put my iv line in 3 different times and couldn't get it so then she went to get a different nurse and while that took a long time I had a lot of time to think that wasn't boosting my confidence in my decision if they can't eve get the iv line in. What if I am making a mistake ? So I started crying because I'm a cryer and then a male nurse came and got it on the first try. That was probably around 1145 then I was scheduled to be sleeved at 1215 and it was 115 and so I went to ask questions and the nurse was like "yeah sometimes the doctor goes over just like any dr appointment and you want them to take their time" kind of snotty like. I told them I was just wondering because no one told me anything. Then they came in and wheeled me to the or. That's the last thing I remember before waking up and questioning to myself why in gods name did I do this to myself. I asked my boyfriend why he didn't talk me out of it because the gas pain was so horrible and I wanted to cry. I read on here from a lot of people that the first day is tough and you really second guess yourself. No complications. Here I am September 10th and I still think I'm crazy for choosing this but as so many people say its worth it in the end and they would do it again in a heart beat so I'm just looking forward to being on that side of it. . Hurray.

So my surgery is on the 9th and I fell down the Stairs at my apartment and now I'm bleeding somewhere strange that won't stop. Like some place embarrassing and I'm worried they will cancel my surgery because of it. I'm so scared.

It was yesterday that I fell and I feel fine. But it's just still bleeding. And I know they give you blood thinners and ask you if you have any open wounds.

I could be wrong though. I think everyone is suspicious. Lol.

Monday is my surgery. When I was getting my EKG today for pre op the nurse asked me if I was getting the bypass and I said no I'm getting the sleeve she told me she had the bypass 2 years ago and I am making the best decision of my life. Se said she is so happy for me and she gave me a hug. It feels so good for other people to tell you about it. And damn. She had a nice looking body. It just reaffirms my decisions through and through. Omg the 9th here I come.

I said awhile ago I think she/he/it may be trolling everyone. Seems awfully suspicious with all the food references. I can't help but think someone is making fun of us and this forum.

That was a really personal story. I don't know if it took a lot to share it but it would have for me. So wow. I'm sorry about everything you've been through but you look amazing! Congratulations on your victory despite everything!

I had pizza today. However I didn't eat so much that I don't feel good but I'm terrified of gaining what I lost back. But I have until the 9th to be better.

I love using zucchini and meat balls and marinara. Soooo good. I called them zoodles. My family likes them even though they don't watch what they eat.

I love love love! this forum. I'm Jessica and Im 28 and for as long as I can remember I have struggled with my weight - dont ever remember feeling comfortable and happy in my own skin. Im definitely an introvert and would skip school to play video games which probably contributed to me gaining weight to now. Family habits of eating seconds and thirds and big portions all my life have led to gaining weight and keeping it on. Tried jenny craig, weight watches, atkins... mostly only those diets and then just fell off the wagon. Im very shy and played lots of video games and only ever dated online and when all of those relationships failed i gave up on online dating and said eff it! Then something amazing happened and I met my wonderful boyfriend in WoW and he accepted me at my current weight and we have been together for almost 3 years now and he is a total skinny minny. I work in a pharmacy as a technician now for 5 almost 6 years and I love/hate it. Going to school SLOOOOOWLY to eventually become a pharmacist because I cant imagine doing anything else with my life. I feel like finally, almost turning 30 everything in my life will be TOTALLY AWESOME. Surgery date september 9th OMG. Did I mention I love this place.

Hahaha I love it.

I think we are all being trolled.

I'm just going to reply so I can get updates on this steamy... I mean "buttery" thread. I haven't had my sleeve yet but I'm already telling my boyfriend all the fun things I have planned for him. .

Im just so excited and reading this forum so much. I wrote a list of things I want at hospital and what I think I should have readily available when I get home. And just screaming out of excitement sometimes when I'm alone in my car. .

My surgery date is 09/09. They wanted me to have it this Friday but my work needed a 2 week notice. So omgggggggg so excited!!!

I made a request on Instagram my username is rinnatu. Not sleeved yet but soon!

So I am one of those overweight girls with small "girls". I'm afraid ill have no boobage left after! Anyone else had no boobs before surgery ?

Dlareme. As of now not active. Hopefully after my sleeve I will be. Also don't know how to add people on iPhone.

My boyfriend is a thin guy. He's about 170ish and at my heaviest. I was 303. I'm down to 279 for per op weight (pre op appointment 8/15). But before him I dated bigger guys just because I never thought I was worthy of anyone else. My boyfriend now showed me differently for liking me just the way I am. I also liked those heavier guys for who they were but I would never even try to go for someone who isn't overweight. I still tell my boyfriend sometimes that he is a 9 and I'm like a 4... Horrible I know. He's amazing though.

I had to do 6 months on weight watchers to even get the consultation approved. It was fine. 6 month will go by before you know it.

Wow congrats snow! Maybe sometime we can chat.

I am 29. My pre op appointment is aug 15th in Santa Barbara. I'm so nervous but so ready.
