At the hospital. Will have my surgery in about 2 hours. Did all the blood work, ekg, and xray yesterday. Very easy and painless. The staff here are wonderful. I love Lucy. Everything is clean. Can't say enough good things. I will post form the loosers bench next time.

I got my sleeve. Now if only I could sleep. I am in some painand the only thing that relives it is standing or wilking. Well a girl can only stand so long. I am hoping the gas lets up gust a little bit.

Julienick77 how did your surgery go. Thinking of you.

CONGRATS!!! It's gets better everyday. My only suggestion for the gas is Gas-X strips. Some peeps here on the forum said it work wonders. Good luck!!!! :D

I love your name. It would be fun to have the surgery as a secret I think. Its not just a tool but a SECRET tool. I like that !! There is a certain satisfaction in keeping your business to yourself.

Hey girl, I'm back home and doing well. I lost my voice but other than that I feel good. I plan to go back to work tomorrow. I have a full schedule so lets keep our fingers crossed that I make it through the day. I only have a half day wednesday. My worst day was the day I came home from the hospital. I had not been taking any meds while in the hospital because I didn't think I needed them and I think the drive was a little too much. All better now. I drove 3 hours from my parents to my home today and that wasn't too bad. I've been having alot of Powerade slushes but can't take the Protein bullets. Hope you are doing well. Keep in touch.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
