My surgery will be in September! I am nervous too, but also really excited.

What are you most nervous about? For me I am most nervous about the pain post-op.

I had surgery last Thursday . I was in Walmart today walking just fine ! The gas pain is what really hurts the most ! I had virtually no pain from the surgery ! Just the horrid gas ( still have it) !

Congrats ! You soon will be on the losers bench ! You are almost there !!

I, too am new this site. I'm getting scared about the pain. Mine is scheduled for August 14th. I am a wuss when it comes to pain!

I never had any pain medicine at all. Honestly had no pain. I had some soreness when getting up but that went away in a few days. I know everyone is different but don't stress over the pain....even if you have any it will be over quick! Best of luck!

Thanks Tracym1107! That helps ease my nerves.

For sure. I've told my family and friends. My anxiety was on high, but I got through that. The roughest part is that I'm paying for it. My insurance has some stupid clause that I don't qualify. But I need this. I'm tired of being inactive due to my weight. I want my life back!

Thank God for low interest loans. I guess I'll be more motivated to get and keep the weight off since I'm paying for it.
