Hello everyone. I got the call today that my surgery is scheduled for the 29 of July...eekkk I think I just got nervous and excited at the same time. Background on me I'm a 33 year old mom of 2. I am entering a BSN program this fall. My Pcp recommended years ago that I undergo surgery but mentally I was not ready. In November I decided it was time for a change and began losing on my own. When I weighed in, in December I was 342 pounds now I'm down to 304. I do not have a goal wait. I have 3 classes I take over the next week before I go in for surgery. The question that I have for those of you who are post surgery is what is the 1 thing you wish you would have known going into the surgery and even during recovery? Oh I also want to wish everyone a beautiful journey on your way to a healthier you.

That 8 hours a sleep is going to be the hard part. I'm a third shifter so I'm up when normal people are sleeping. I will try my hardest to rest though.

Thank you so much that makes me happy. Congrats on a successful surgery and recovery.

Sorry @@kell778 ....can I ask how is your energy and mobility. I ask because my sister is getting married exactly 10 days after the surgery. I can't miss it. I'm not in it but I must be in attendance. I know everyone is different just curious

I'm so ready! If they told me to come in now I'd be omw

Anyone having surgery on or around July 29. I have amazing support from family and friends. However I feel that a buddy can be super beneficial during this process.

Being able to dance in my heels ALL NIGHT!

Thanks so much. I sent a request to join the group

I just got the call yesterday that I'm scheduled for July 29....I'm nervscited (nervous+excited). Good luck and best of wishes for a successful surgery and speedy recovery
