Yes, I have walked a lot today but I'm not overdoing it. Anything for the dry cotton mouth anyone?

I've tried cough drops, and they seem to work a little along with the G2 Gatorade.

Just keep sipping or chewing ice chips. I remember being sooooo thirsty and not being able to drink enough, it won't last long.

So are you a piano player? (icon curiosity)

If so, jazz, rock, concert? Just trying to distract you from the dry mouth!

this is the reason why I havent told my dad or my brother.. and I belive my brother does have it peirced so he cant say anything about that... but what I would to is.. (do they still have Office depots???) go buy a 3x5 card binder ring of the biggest diameter possible and tell him this is the one they used to test fit before the surgery... and leave it on his desk.

I bet you that he goes and tries it on... lol.

Good luck to you...

Stowesuka, yeah I understand what you're saying but I really had no choice but to tell him because he's my business partner, and if I just didn't tell him, I'm sure he would wonder what was going on after I didn't show up for 2 weeks. HAHA.But yeah that's a good suggestion and I might even try it! Thanks for the advice.

      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.
