Surgery Day Tomorrow 8/27

[ddolphinn722 8]

Well it has finally arrived tomorrow I will be sleeved I know everything will be fine. I am just starting with the "what if's" I am very nervous about being put under for surgery I know it is only less than 2 hours but still very nervous. Any suggestions to help me get past this. Thanks everyone love this site.

I'm tomorrow too. I was very anxious yesterday but feel calm right now. When I think about risks I try to remind myself of all the risks that I have being overweight. Also thinking long term - how fabulous will next year be! I haven't been a healthy wt in 25 years - Iand its hard to even picture myself thin. I have to say also I don't feel excited about this like so many preop posts say- feel this huge unknown in front of me but reading success stories has kept me going. There is only one way to go and I want out of this overweight prison. Good luck tomorrow I will keep you in my prayers.

Hey ladies (and gents?)... I'm in for tomorrow as well. Excited to begin my new life ! Thanks for the picture and measurement reminder. I can't wait to post pix... Heck I can't wait to fit into...get this...the sexy calve high boots I bought on sale and never could squeeze on past my ankles ! ! Come on fall... Go away pounds ! ! Focus on all the good things you will be able to do after. Btw... From what I've heard there really is no pain after its more soreness like you've done a million sit upset and tummy feels gross from the gas (maybe like when you have to poop and can't? ). What had anyone else heard?

I am 8/27 as well. I am having my surgery in Memphis. One minute I'm so excited I can't stand myself then the next minute I am scared to death. I am a messed up bundle of emotions right now! Good luck to everyone and I'll be seeing you all on the losers bench in no time!!

Fear is normal. It means you're not a reptile.

Good luck to all of you! I was sleeved on August 22nd. The emotional part I have found much be quite normal. I cried one minute and laughed the next. Never could decide if I was making the right decision. The soreness is the worst part. I can't say that I was in pain. You must walk walk walk! I promise it makes the soreness go away more quickly. Good luck to all of you. I hope I can answer some questions for each of you since I have already had the procedure.

Good luck to all! I am 2 weeks behind you and am looking forward to hearing about your experience...good and bad. I think the more information that you have the better you will handle whatever comes your way.

How active are you after the surgery? Mine is scheduled for 9/3 I'm so excited! Yet concerned about recuperation time. I know everyone is different but I have read some people are out shopping the next day! How do you feel?
