alyxandavery 0 Posted March 24, 2010 My name is Christina and I have completed all my test and got approved for the surgery two weeks ago. I have Tricare Prime and they didn't give me any problems. I currently weigh 314 and have no co-morbidities, but I wanted to make a change in my life. I have started the liquid diet stage presurgery and I believe my surgery is on the 1st of April. I'm both excited and scared.Any advice?:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
loserbob 11 Posted March 24, 2010 I had my surgery on March 10th. I was probably more scared than anyone, I never had surgery so didnt know what to expect. The surgery was a breeze, I was required to stay overnight. The next 2 1/2 days where uncomfortable, I questioned why I did it. But after day 3 that was all forgotten(Ill explain, very bad gas discomfort, but no actual pain due to surgery). I got back to normal after 3rd day and after 10 days I lost 32# so the first 2 1/2 days are forgotten. Its been alot easier than anticipated so far(Loseing, healing). The diet stinks until week 2 which Im starting now. I hope this is helpful to you. Good luck, youll do great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
