Tomorrow I Go See The Surgeon For My First Post Op Evaluation....nervous!



Recommended Posts

SO OK.. tomorrow will be the first time my surgeon sees me since i had the surgery back on 12-12-11. Im not sure what to expect.. Im a little nervous...NO FORGET THAT IM A LOT NERVOUS! I am soooo afraid that they are gonna tell me that im behind schedule of what im supposed to be losing. Ive heard stories ad i just don't wanna come out of there disappointed in myself..

I mean im doin everything that i can, i work out, and im getting in my Water and food(sometimes) im just afraid of what they will say..

I guess the only thing that I am excited about is for them to tell me what my ACTUAL goal weight is supposed to be.. the number on my ticker is just something that I made up cuz no one ever gave me a number.. i think im actually supposed to be somewhere around 160-165 because i do have a lot of muscle, but we shall see.

ANY ADVICE?!?!?!?!?! CUZ I THINK IM GONNA STRESS OUT UNTIL TOMORROW!

I think you will be just fine. I was nervous too! I saw mine for my 3 month check up. I had an okay visit. I wouldnt say it was the greatest but he said I was doing fine. He told me that my weight loss was going to start slowing down and I needed to up my exercise if I wanted to make goal but he could tell and had no doubt that I would! He had not set a goal for me so I asked him about it. He asked me where I wanted to be and I said 135 sounded good to me and he said "me too!". He did tell me that I needed to get down to about 125 so I would have some room for rebound when my weight decided to settle out... I took the positives and ran with it. I go again Feb. 10 for my 6 month check up. Good luck tomorrow and tell us what he says!

My only advice is to take a deep breath. Everything will turn out fine. It wouldn't hurt to talk over an idea on a goal weight with your surgeon to get some kind of direction.

Let us know how it goes!

You are doing fine. You are doing great in fact. I agree with forensik and LilMissDiva. ;)
