Is anybody sorry?

Jagator88 · December 24, 2009

I do regret that I had so many complications and I probably should regret the surgery because of it but I don't. I regret the fact that my pcp did not find the hiatal hernia so that it could have been taken care of before the VSG was done. Also, the hiatal hernia would not have done so much damage to my lung. Now that the worst is a little behind me I am enjoying the weight loss. Now I just wish I could convince myself to eat!

I am hoping to have the VSG as soon as my doctor gives me the green light. And I must agree with girly.girl...I have fears, like everyone else and it makes me feel so much better knowing that sleevers don't regret their decision. You are all amazing and I wish you all the best on your continuous journey.

Girly.girl - I think it's great you've made the decision to have the surgery. Hopefully I will be right there with you (and for you)! Good luck!!!

Hi Girly-Girl, Thanks for asking this important question. It seems that the positive far outweighs that negative. I am hoping to get the sleeve in early 2010 as well, I'd love to be sleeve buddies!

Dear Hayley, I am sorry you are experiencing so many complications, it is not fun at all. I can certainly sympathize. Are you not eating because you are scared to eat or because you have no appetite? Hang in there and take life 1 day at a time, this too shall pass, I promise.

Hang in there Haley. You are getting better. Just take it slowley. Drink your peotein and try not to worry. Let the past be just that, past. Think about your wonderful new future. What do you want to do when the weight comes off? Have any goals?
