Heading To The Hospital For Surgery!



Recommended Posts

Just leaving for my surgery at the (pardon the expression) butt crack of dawn. A bit anxious and nervous but ready to continue this journey. Please send prayers my way. Surgery is scheduled for 7:30 am. Talk to you all on the other side. Best of luck to the others having surgery today!

All went well so far. Found a small hernia and fixed that too. About to get up and walk as soon as nurse comes and unhooked everything. Just really drowsy. Feeling pain but not that bad. Thanks everyone

It's great that all went well. They also found and fixed a hernia on me, so I imagine that may be common. Keep it under 15 mph in the hallways, and don't be surprised if it hurts to laugh, so don't let anyone be funny around you...enjoy your stay, watch for the male respiratory therapist ( he had some oddly personal stories to divulge), and remember, I've chips are your friend...

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
