The nurse or rep whoever she is ; is kinda rude. I do understand that it is early in the morning and people are sleepy but that is not a excuse for anyone to be rude. If she didn't want to do the paperwork and sign us in she should have had someone else do it. Smh at rude people.

And I needed to stay an extra day because of that time frame with no meds.

That is horrible did the manager Sonya ever come by and talk to you? I would talk to Dr Tanner again during your post op exam I know he is trying to get that floor back in shape.

So Packing up my stuff and hubby's driving us to a hotel to spend the night. Don't wanna make him get up at 3:00am for all that driving. I probably wont be able to sleep tonight anyway. Im to excited. Oh and thanks for all those thoughts and prayers my cold seems to have cleared up. No meds in 24 hours now. Nose not stuffy anymore.

Yeah she came and switched me nurses and everything. Dr tanner is defiantly on it. Before I could even finish telling him what was going on he was pushing my call button yelling at the nurse who answered.

That's good he had to do the same thing when he found out the nurses were not emptying my JP drain unless I asked them too the manager never came to my room which I thought was bad.

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

        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.

      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
