I just wanted to check in. Surgery went perfectly. They found a small hernia and were able to fix it. I wasn't able to walk last night as every time I sat up' date=' I threw up. I feel much better this morning and am hoping for a better day. I go for my upper G I in about an hour.[/quote']
Everyone' date=' I have named our Post op group to "May 2013 POST OP GROUP" so all our post op patients can start letting us know how they are doing. This way here we can connect on our surgiversary easy with the year noted. But of course we still love to see you posting on our May surgeries also :-) post away on both! Hope all is well with our surgery patients today.

Surgery date: May 14, 2013[/quote']

Best of luck and good health to all who are making this big life change. And it is our overall health improvement as to why we are doing this (and of course it doesn't hurt our self esteem either). My May date is the 24th and I am very ready. I'm ready to hopefully relieve some of my back and feet pain. I'm ready to run (or walk briskly) after my 2 year old and not be tired and out of breath. And most of all, I'm ready to start living again!

May 14th for me, @ Cleveland Clinic. I to have begin to get nervous and wonder if I am doing the right thing, but then that passes quickly as soon as something reminds me of what I have to gain. Good luck all :-)

I can't believe it's May already! I'm in the same boat as you, just a bit scared. I've jumped through a lot of hoops to get this far and the alternative to not having this surgery is the continuation of my health and lifestyle on a downward trajectory. Weigh the pros against the cons and you'll see that you're doing the right thing :)

      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.
