Surgery Tomorrow 7/28/2



Recommended Posts

OMG...I cant believe that it is tomorrow and right now I am so hungry. I have been crying all day and now I am about to do my clean out method. Maybe I am making a mistake...Right now I am missing food and I am dying to have a slice of pizza and cant believe that I may never be able to eat it again. I hate the fact that I was not able to do this alone. What am I gonna do if I cant eat...I think I am having a panic attack!!!!

I am going to be banded tomorrow also :scared2: I am definitely hungry right now but I just keep thinking I am going to loose weight! YEA! Yes I am nervous about the next few weeks but from what I read and hear it will get much better after week 4. Hang in there.

and you will eat again..I promise...maybe even a slice of pizza (well the topping for sure but maybe not a lot of the crust when you hit restriction) I get full from the topping now.

Everything will be just fine. I also felt like second guessing my decision but I am a week out of surgery today and I'm feeling so much better health wise already. I have lost a few pounds and I'm already feeling more alive and energized and not so controlled by food. It's a wonderful feeling, you won't regret it. :scared2:

Tab,

I'm having surgery tomorrow too! I have sought some friends online who have had the surgery and had private conversations with them. You WILL be able to eat pizza again. Like someone else mentioned maybe just the topping but from what I hear, the desire to eat an entire pizza like we have now will be GONE! I am so excited, today is my last day letting food control my life. Starting tomorrow, I am eating to live and not living to eat. Join me!

Good luck!

Hi,

wish I was getting the band today instead I went today to get the results of my stress test and he wanted to put me in the hospital for a angioplasty I have a slight block on the top of my heart and they don't know how much it has processed if not tested they won't do anything until it is 75% blocked so I asked him to wait until after I get the band and he agreed.I am just getting stressed out more waiting for my approval wish I only knew on way or the other.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
