My husband stayed overnight on a cot in my room, and most of the two days I was in the hospital but he sort of drive me nuts... Wanting to watch movies when I wanted to sleep, etc. it was nice to have him there to walk the halls with.

Because my hospital was over an hour away..My husband did not stay with me. In fact, my only contact with family was over the phone. We walked the surgical unit a lot together over the phone. By me being by myself I was able to focus on my treatment and recovery. I was sleeved 6/4/13. 22 days out.

My boyfriend didn't stay overnight but because I had a private room they let him stay past visiting hours.

I was in hospital for 4 days, the first day I needed help getting to the toilet by myself but from the second day I was showering myself ect.

I didn't mind asking the nurses for help they were really nice and it's what they are there for!

With you your first night at hospital?

Did you take a shower at hospital later on after your surgery?

I have so many thoughts racing through my mind right now! My surgery is 6/26/13 Yikes!

Stay with me? Heck no! It was time for me to ask questions, walk out the toots, and just doze off for a few minutes here and there. I was discharged the next day so while he did visit in the mornings before work, I didn't even have him bring my kids up. I did have a few of my sorority sisters visit, which loved. I had the remote to myself, my iPad and my phone. What else did I need? Nothing!

      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.
