December Surgeries!?!?!?



Recommended Posts

Finally going home from the hospital. My surgery was yesterday and was successful. Still got some pain on my abdomen but the liquid pain meds are helping a lot. I wasn't able to keep anything down last night but did somewhat well for Breakfast, I hope it gets easier! Praying for y'all Dec surgeries and wishing you best of luck. Btw, I did the 2 day Protein liquid diet and last 10 pounds when they weighed me before surgery! Exciting!!!!

Had my pre-op appointment today which included checking in with the hospital, paying the rest of my expenses, and pre-admit testing including ekg, lung xray, blood work, and urine sample. 37 days smoke free! Diet starts in two days. Pardon my language, but s**t just got real!

Day 2 after surgery. I'll be in the hospital at least until tomorrow afternoon.

Things didn't go exactly as planned...they got 4 holes poles in me and decided because of my anatomy they had to revert to an open rny. I'm in a lot of pIn tonight from the muscles and all being cut, but I have no gas pains.

I was doing really well up until this evening but now the pain is crazy bad. They have upped feh delodid and Tylenol. I'm hoping tonight is the worse of it.

More later or tomorrow.

Hi. I am new to this but my date is Dec 17 after a 6 month program. I just started the 2 week pre-op Protein Shakes. It has been a tough day with that, my head is filling with doubts.

Things didn't go exactly as planned for me either. .. I was to have my gall bladder removed during my sleeve surgery but when they got in they couldn't get all the stones so they closed me back up after 2 hours and now I got to see another surgeon for the stone's. ...so I sit in uncertainty and in pain the pain I should be feeling from my sleeve but no its from my gall bladder

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
