Thanks Everyone!!

Just got home about 40 minutes ago, I was gonna try to respond quicker but my mom ran my phone to the ground with the battery lol. Anyway, I'm doing pretty good and haven't had any issues so far and it feels good to be home and be resting that it for sure. I'm really sore around my port site and really tight overall with all my incisions. Taking sips of Water and I already put down a 20oz Water already since I left the surgical center lol. I don't think I have any gas pains thus far but im burping a lot so I hope I don't have to deal with it later this week *fingers crossed*!! But I got on the scale before I left and I weighed 317lbs and I was 339lbs before I started my pre-op diet 2 weeks ago!! Pretty excited and building that confidence up. I can't wait to get healed up and start moving and make myself a healthier person and get in shape!!

Thanks for the support!!

-Amine

      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.

      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.
