October Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

My surgery is scheduled for 10/29. I am getting nervous at this point. I feel like I have gone through so much to get to this point.. And now the life changing event is around the corner!

You will do great, being nervous is normal. Praying for a non eventful surgery and speedy recovery for you!

You will be fine, you have done all you can... Your head is in the right place and you will be fine I promise I was nervous as hell, had mine on Monday not as straight forward as just a RNY as I had revision from a band and I had a lot of problems with that. But still it's Sunday and I'm doing good. Be strong smile and think of all the awesome clothes you will be buying in 3-4 months time xx my husband has promised me an unlimited shopping budget that's war I think of when I'm down or unsure about stuff. And everyone here keeps your spirits high xxx

Wow' date=' that was a real band mess, I bet you were truly pissed by the end of the crap band. Well I am so proud of you for fighting to have RNY! I'm sure things will look up from here. Congrats!

Just be patient. It sucks. It will get better. I thought I would be tough last night and walk around the grocery store with my hubby. Was too much for me. Although I fought through takin pain meds until just a few moments ago.

My surgery is day after tomorrow - Oct. 23. I have to be at my surgeon's office tomorrow morning at 8:00 for my pre-op. Not exactly sure what all that will involve. Trying to stay positive and excited, but keep getting little nerve attacks! Sure hope everything goes well!

I'm excited most of all about getting off of all these blood pressure meds - I'm maxed out and still cannot get my BP under control. I'm also so excited to be able to dress in things I really like instead of just whatever I can find that fits.

      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.

      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.
