Surgery today!



Recommended Posts

Well, it's been a bit of journey, but here I am. I have surgery scheduled in 5 hours, but I have to be at the hospital in 3 hours.

I've been fasting the last 2 days (been rough!) and I'm happy it's going to be over soon. I've done all my post-op grocery shopping. My copayment is paid, and a ride secured. Nothing to stop this from happening and no turning back!

I'm excited and a little nervous, miserably hungry but I'll live. Wish me luck!

Thanks I'm sure it will be ok. I'm just having a rough time with this fast. I am about 56 hours into this fast of Clear liquids only. Haven't had any fluids since 12am.

I known exactly how you feel:-) . I am in my 10 day after surgery and to me also the liquid was rough. You will still have one more week to go after surgery. But hang in there. You will get through it and good luck.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
