Today Is The Big Day!

[CHELL 41]

Well today is the big day. I'm getting my sleeve @11:00 this morning. I'm a little nervous but excited. I'm having irrational thoughts like being the only one this doesn't work for, losing too much weight and looking sick, missing being able to gorge on food, and the finality of it all. I've been getting a lot of "you're not big enough for that surgery" and "You don't need that". I've been second guessing myself the past couple of days but I'm going thru with it this morning. Wish me luck and thanks for all the support these past few months.

Good luck to you. I went through those same feelings too. You'll probably have even more of those at the hospital along with strong emotions before surgery. But hopefully before you know it will be over and you will be recovering quickly and realize it is so worth it! Let us know.

Good luck. You will do great. All those thoughts are normal but trust me, you will be so happy once you are home and healing. The worst part is when you first wake up and when they take the drainage tube out. And, what everyone says is so true....you do feel better every day...and every day it gets easier to get more in you. The first four to five days, you don't really feel like taking in much of anything. You will have to force the liquids in but after the swelling goes down it gets much easier. Also, WALK, WALK, WALK. I can't stress how much this helps with the gas pain and your overall healing. Good luck and keep us posted on how things went.
