Thank you so much for your message , it hit home with me , I am 59 and really my issues where my knees and feet . I have two sweet grandchildren and a wonderful husband . I just was reading about all the folks that are anxious , seeing therapist , nut's, measuring counting , over thinking a lot . I just told my husband is there something wrong with me ? I'm just one day at a time , using common sense on what I eat and do . I am today 5 days out , feeling good and excited . Your message made me feel good and I can't wait until I and 50 or so pounds down . #onedayatatime #dontoverthink -

Not sure , but my dr checks before surgery is over and the morning before you go home , that is when u stand in front of a screen drink while they watch , two sips was it but was horrible . That is my only complaint -
Day three after my October 22 surgery , I am doing wonderful , surgery went so well , and the days after went well . I am so excited about how the future will be . Taking a few more days off work to get my food and my sore tummy I shape . This experience has been better than I ever expected . Thankful for my family and my doctor ! They have been great ❤️#feelingblessed

No gas pains at all , vomited only once in the hospital after I had to drink that awful stuff to see if I had any leakage , it came right back up nasty . Other than that it's been fine . I could not be more happy with the outcome and how I feel . -
Waiting week , going in tomorrow to do a couple of things I need to and then I'm off the rest of the week

My surgery is Oct. 22 , I am on my 2 week diet , I am starving , my head hurts , and I keep saying is this really necessary to make someone suffer like this . By the time surgery comes I will be so weak, drinking my protein shakes , they are horrible , eating jello . Sorry for the whining , just needed to vent . Hope tomorrow is better .

Home from the hospital , doing ok , eating a Popsicle right now , a little sore but glad to have it in my past . The anthesia dr just tore my throat up , told him what size tube I needed from surgeries , he decided that he was going bigger , my throat is horrible as is my neck , but this will pass . Oct 22 , is past so begins my future .

Mine is tomorrow too ! Excited and nervous

Desperate for a Buddy (10/22)
mlp1435 replied to acyum2008's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm getting sleeved on 10/22 also , excited , scared but so ready to get this done and move on . We will be fine , what am I taking to the hospital , we'll still trying to decide , prob 2 pairs of Pj's , slippers , and that's as far as I have gotten . Still struggling on the 2 weeks diet of no food , only protein shakes . One of the hardest things I have ever done . We will do this and be fine . Stay in touch my surgery is a 7:30 am , glad it's not late in the day ..... -
I did , had one done , insurance didn't require it my surgeon did .
-
Feeling somewhat better , headaches are not all day , just towards the end of the evening , getting down 4 protein shakes a day , only 5 days until surgery ..... Hanging in there ..
