August 2013 Roll Call



Recommended Posts

T-14 days! Started my liver shrink diet this morning. Had an awesome Protein Shake from almond milk and natural Peanut Butter this morning. Just scarfed down a bowl of green Beans and drank a muscle milk for lunch. I know I can be disciplined for these two weeks, but a few prayers here and there for me wouldn't be denied... ;)

Been thinking about ya!? Hope all is well haven't heard from you yet! Please keep us updated!

HELLO NATTNAT22!! How are you? I'm doing considerably well!! I was discharged the next day and so far all has gone well!! I haven't had to use any pain meds in the hospital or home!! I would say the worst part has been the gas but its sooooo much better!! Walking alot has helped so much. I just went for my first week exam and am down 12 lbs. that was exciting for me. For my 3 day post op exam I lost 6 so in a week it's been a total of 18 lbs. oh and I'm so happy to be sleeping on my side. LOL

HOPE ALL ARE DOING WELL!! SORRY FIR MY ABSENCE BEEN TRYING TO CATCH UP ON MUCH NEEDED SLEEP!!

      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.
