Woah! Rough Day!!!!



Recommended Posts

Friday is my VSG...I cannot believe it. I decided to keep my son out of school today so we could all spend the day together (incase I die and all. Morbid I know). We were doing running around had just a couple things to pick up. We went to the Chinese resturant to eat lunch since that's where my son wanted to go and I was surpised at how many things I could eat. Opened my fortune cookie "Today is your lucky day". Went by starbucks and ordered my 3carb coffee Decaf that I had been craving and went on my way when BAM a huge Dodge Ram truck slams into the back of me. Me and my husband go flying forward and then slam back in our seats breaking the seats (yeah I need to lose weight) and pushing the seats back on our kids laps. Hubbys headrest even broke he hit so hard. This guy was going about 35 and never hit the brakes. My car is totally smashed in but everyone is okay other than neck and head pain from everyone. Had to drive the car home and go get a rental which took 4 hours. I'm at home now and my youngest just fell asleep. That means I wont get to tell him bye before I leave at 5am. Infact I just nursed him to sleep and that might have been my last nursing him :( I'm packing and super nervous. Like almost in tears nervous expecially reading all these post about how many troubles people are having post op. Keep me in your thoughts please. I'm headed to Mexico in less than 12 hours. :unsure:

You are going to be so fine! Next time you see your son, you will be well into starting your new healthy adventure! And in a few months you will be playing and maybe even having a little chineese food with him again. Congratulations!

You will be absolutely fine, promise! You will be in excellent and caring hands. You will see once it's all over how silly it was to think like this. I mean, I understand believe me... but really you will be a-ok.

Check in and let us know how you're doing as soon as you're up to it. Hugs!!!

Oh wow, sorry about your accident, what terrible timing (not that is ever a GOOD time for that to happen!) I'm thankful that you were all okay, and it didn't derail your surgery plans. I hope you are doing well in recovery, and post an update when you can!

      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.
