  5. @@finallyfree101 Hi I've been looking for someone who was getting the surgery same day as me and here you are hope we can keep in touch...
  6. Hi, I get my surgery on 7/3/14 my doctor only giving me 2 weeks off, said he will not do no more, he said there's no need, so I guess I'm back after 2 weeks. Now what I'm nervous about is school I have to be back 4 days after my surgery because of financial aid, I'm hoping I'll be able to sit in class 3 hours two times a week.

    Any july surgery dates?

    Hi again yall as I said my date is 7/3/14, I'm 33 years old have 4 children 17,15,7,@ 5. My weight is 315 pounds be4 I started my pre-op diet I haven't weighted myself since and I won't until the day of the surgery. I really want to do this first for myself, this is the biggest I've ever been and I'm unhappy looking at myself, it disgust me and getting dress erk's me as well I walk around like it don't bother me but inside it hurts that I have gotten this big. I feel unattractive to my husband and I have one daughter out my four kids and want to feel good about myself and show her that being healthy is important. I want to be able to enjoy spending time with them keeping up with their energy level, also I have made so many positive changes I think this will complete everything and I will feel great and look great as well. I'm a nervous wreck every day that gets closer I get more of a wreck but I do know now that I will be showing up I was second guessing myself but no longer I just pray that God keep his loving arms around me and protect me from any danger. Looking forward to going through this with yall
  14. Thanks yall for the reply, I'm having it at Einstein Bariatrics. First let me say that I truly believe that this surgery will give me back my peace I'm 315 pounds and what's crazy I would have never said or wrote that for anyone to see, but now that I know I have a chance to make that number decrease it's been much easier to admit where I let myself get to. This is the biggest I've ever been and I'm just unhappy with my appearance and my attitude reflects it. I have made so many positive changes in my life and I want my body to be able to keep up with my busy life. Another reason is I got married a little over a year ago, and I feel so unattractive and my sex drive is none, I know my husband loves me but because I'm not loving myself right now it's really hard to love him the way he deserves to be loved and my children I want to be able to keep up with them. As you can see I know every reason why I made this decision, but as everyday that creeps by I'm getting more and more nervous that's why I reached out but like I said reading your journey has been an inspiration. I'm day 7 on my pre-op diet this time next week will be my surgery day.
  15. Hi, I type in Philadelphia and I came across you it has been inspirational reading you journey. I'm get my sleeve on 7/3/14 and every day that passes I get more and more nervous I'm a wreck and it's eking me that I'm second guessing myself. I really need words of encouragement right now.

  20. Hi, I have a question for post - op I'm scheduled For my surgery on 7/3/14. I'm schedule to start my college class on 7/8/14 my question is is that a realistic decision I have read of people going back to work in a week after surgery. I took two weeks off from work so the only thing I would have to do is be able to make it to class two days out the week for 3 hours, and then I'll be home relaxing and I do have 4 days to recuperate be4 I'm due in class . Some of my family members are telling me that's to much please give me yall opinions I would greatly appreciate it.

      5 days out from vsg, I was still relying on the heavy pain meds to make it through the day and was napping daily. Assuming you have a textbook procedure, and that going to class doesn't involve a lot of physical movement and/or participation early on, it may work for you. Be aware you will be dead tired, like never before, and you're going to have to power through. I went back to work after 8 days, and I felt like I pushed it just because my mental sharpness was just not there. I had brain fog for the first 2 weeks solid. Not impossible though. Good luck to you in your journey!

      No way do I see you going to class four days after surgery. You probably will have a very hard time moving and getting up and down.

      You probably will be on pain meds and it's illegal to drive while using them. Plus no surgeon would let you drive that soon after surgery.

      I had a text book surgery but had a hard time drinking and was in the hospital for four days. You never know what could happen. Most likely nothing but to be safe cancel your class until next semester.

      I did that myself because I was in no shape to sit there for three hours.

      Think which is more important taking care of your health or a class that will be there waiting for you.

      Best of luck with your surgery.
