Yes she got all bent outta shape and was like your neighbors are all snapping them up. So I said good for them I'm NOT INTERESTED BUT THANK YOU. It just makes me sick. Each one took gouges of paint off and they all are a fit long and a inch wide. Its like they colored it with a key. Back and forth back and forth.

Tomorrow hoping I hear something about my car. Thankfully I'm off til Thurs but is annoying not hearing anything plus just makes me anxious as heck about my car. Today was over all a good day. Hubby having foot surgery again on Fri. It's like restarting all this crap all over again. Still don't know alot about the future and where we may be living after the next few months. I am however taking this time to enjoy being home with my boy and doggies.

The important thing is you are okay. Enjoy the boy & doggies!

I just don't answer the door if I don't know the person outside. I've got a peep hole. Also I may have found out why I've had the runs since surgery. Lactose intolerance. I did not have dairy last Friday and felt great all day and Saturday. I had milk on Sunday and was back on the pot all day. I decided to not have dairy since Monday again to try it and I have been regular since no dairy. I figured it out and I feel great now and not worried to go anywhere for fear of not being in the immediate proximity to a bathroom! I have missed five family vacations since surgery because of my fear of not knowing what the bathroom situation would be like...

I may have this same situation... Need to test it out. There are days at work when I am helping customers and I have to call someone else for help cause I am in such pain and need to go to the restroom... I usually have a yogurt for Breakfast before work, now that you have said this. I am thinking this may be it.

I know before on different threads there was the topic of insomnia. It's getting really bad with me. I had been using Tylenol pm with some good relief. Melatonin didn't phase me. Ran out and have been house bound without my car so forgot to go out when my hubby got home. It's wide awake all night now. Anyone else struggle with insomnia after rny?? I didn't have it this bad before.

Doing a scan of my liver today. If this detects nothing then I have to get that liver biopsy done. You know I can handle any kind of surgery, but when it comes to this biopsy I have to be awake for. Oh hell no I want nothing to do with it.

Do they sedate you for the liver biopsy? If so, it probably won't be so bad. I had to be awake while they put in a drain that required going through my liver. I didn't feel a thing, but the drain itself was painful for a few days.

My enzymes levels have been if the chart since the summer of 2011. With losing 85 pounds they are still really high. They wanted to do the biopsy before I had the RNY but I've put it off.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
