Well surgery went well and after 2 nights in the hospital I am home. Doctor said everything looked great, despite my little cheat, my liver looked perfect and I have been sent home with liquid pain meds to take every 2-4 hours as needed. It's amazing how my appetite is just non existent...

I was actually whining because my mom woke me up to "eat lunch." I can care less about lunch. I'm tired of sipping.

Yes. It could be the desire to eat is gine because all we are doing is sipping. Lol. I do love my popsicles though.

I need to make myself some popsicles for when I get home. I think coolaid powder mixed with Monkfruit sugar and stevia should work.

I have a huge list of things to do before I leave tomorrow. It is getting intense. I even have hours of work from this week I have not completed yet. I have pre blood typing at 2 tomorrow and have to be there for surgery at 6:45 Monday morning.

I made some popsicles from Crystal Light but I fell in love with the ones in the hospital which were popsicle brand. Hubby bought me a box when I came home.

Present and accounted for....pending this cold doesn't take me down lol

I'm scheduled to arrive at 530am. I'm my surgeons first case at 730am.

Praying we all have seamless transitions to the post op side. Unremarkable recoveries with no complications or pain. Amen.

I am definitely doing all I can to avoid any colds or fevers in the next 2 days. Preop diet has me worn out though. I fell off the wagon seems everyday but I only had a salad or some cottage cheese or fruit which the doctor told me should be my only cheats if I just cant take it. Down 11 lbs since I started it but im sooooo over it now! I hope your cold releases you before Monday

      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.
