question for us older ladies



Recommended Posts

Has anyone experienced vaginal bleeding while on a pre op diet? I haven't had a period in years, and it's just spotting, but it's every day. I don't know if it's the lack of food, liquids only, or the supplements.< /p>

My surgery is May 27th so I'm on the pre op till then. I wonder if I should ask the doctor? Any suggestions?

NO !!!! and I haven`t read or heard about it anywhere on the forums ...

I would go see the doctor , not necessarily the surgeon but your normal doctor and have it looked into ..

Maybe a phone call to the surgeon to see what he thinks ..

Please let us know its a puzzling symptom...

Best of Luck..

Went to the dr. today. He thinks I have an enlarged uterus. I'll have an ultra sound next week. I had this problem about 6 years ago, and they want to do a comparison with that ultra sound to see if anything has changed. Doesn't sound like a major problem.

Majj, how many pounds is a kg? I have no idea

Formula

lbs / 2.2 = kilograms

kg x 2.2 = pounds

Examples

A man weighing 70 kilograms weighs 154 pounds

70 kg x 2.2 = 154 lbs

A woman weighing 110 pounds weighs 50 kilograms

110 lbs / 2.2 = 50 kg

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
