Anyone for October 2020?
Latina Linda replied to barbieater's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Had my surgery in October 2020. Ilost 73 lbs in the first 7 months and now my weight loss is starting to taper off. I only lost 11 lbs in the last 3 lbs and I am wearinga size 12 but I would like to settle in at wearing a size 10. Have a complicated surgey coming up on August 16 so this might be the reason I feel stuck. I'll see howq it goes after my upcoming surgery/ -

I am 65 had surgery 2 mos ago and I ,too, thought I was dying with the pain It turns out I picked up some wicked stomach virus at the hospital which I bought home to my husband. Tell your surgeon not the interns that come by in rounds Tell her or him how bad the pain is. They can give you something as it is not normal to hurt so much I had 8 surgeries in my 65 years but that virus knocked the crap outta me. Everyone was pushing me to drink drink drink I couldn't hold a sip. PLEASE call your surgeon ASAP good luck and God Bless

Too old for plastics?
Latina Linda replied to Chelsea198235's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
I believe as women we always seem to be racing that clock I just had surgery at 65 years old. but I totally understand where you're coming from. I bought tons of anti wrinkle creams when I turned 40. If you will feel happier with some touch ups then go for it You owe it to yourself to feel as content with your body as you can especially being brave enough to have the weight loss surgery.At 65, If I can get afree boob job and a tummy tuck then sign me up! Anyway I wish you happiness and success and GO For it!! -

I had a lap band that had to be removed now I am getting a sleeve so I feel you! I think everyone goes thru the anxiety cause this is it your life is gonna change but it is gonna change for the good! don't dwell on thoughts of food.and what you are gonna eat after surgery. You can eat whatever you want and don't forget you aren't gonna think about food because you are hardly ever gonna feel hungry. If we don't get some anxiety, we wouldn't be normal. As soon as you get to that hospital tell a nurse if you are really jumpy and they give you a tranquilizer.Lay down now close your eyes and think of how great its gonna be when you hit your goal weight and don't forget how quickly that will happen.If you're a believer Pray. Anyway you're about to do the best thing you have ever done for yourself so dont rethink it I wish you all the best!!! -

Anyone go into surgery alone?
Latina Linda replied to samiaam25's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Because of the covid. I think most of us are gonna be restricted to various degrees. I'm taking a phone with my charger as I don't know yet whether my hubby can be there or not. Seeing dr. Tuesday for pre op,and I will ask about it.
