So happy to hear that you are through the worst of the pain. You'll feel better and better every day...a trend that continues long after you get home. Congratulations, Amy... you've made it to the other side, and you will never have to go back to that fat misery!

Ps there were no naked people but I did see another person being worked on for a moment. In recovery I got to watch the screen of another persons surgery. Interesting but I was a lil queasy ATM.

Dr. Garcia took a pic of my stomach but I didn't want to see it yesterday. I'll look today or see if he can email it to me. :)

I woke up this morning in pain and nauseous but a lil meds cleared that up. I feel great now, bit i dont count on that to last.

I have the window open and hear the birds and see the sunshine. I feel really halpy. I could cry. Ive wanted (needed) to feel hope regarding my weight for a long time and i finally feel it. Hope.

I feel a lil hungry bit I think ya just acid.

Also, don't be alarmed if you wake up in recovery spitting old brown blood. Apparently that's normal. My first was pretty red. Also normal. And I did that all night off and on.

Eta- got a shower. That always makes me feel better too. I dislike figuring out unfamiliar hot/cold handles. Lol

Sip sip BURRRP. sip sip BURRP. Hehe

Getting to know my new little friend. He's got quirks.

I can't wait to get this drain out. I wonder of its because I have such a short torso that this thing is painful for me. Who knows. Should get it out tomorrow. Looking at what comes out of it makes me wonder where all that stuff goes on patients who don't have drains.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
