April 2014 pre-op group



Recommended Posts

I am 3 days post-op and feeling good! I am not going to weigh myself until my post-op appointment on the 5th.

Anyone else get sleeved on 4/24?

Well this is it....I'm about T minus 12 hours before arriving at the hospital. So much to do tonight that I couldn't get to as I was trying to rest to fight off this cold. Silly question....I know they say no nail polish. Does that include toes to?

That includes toes :-)

I got a pedicure the day before and just had them buffed and they looked nice and shiny.

They did not tell me anything about polish nail or otherwise. I was at the hospital getting blood types for my surgery in the morning and they said nothing about my fingers or toes. My fingers are pretty obvious.

Dont be surprised if you wake and one is missing. The polish interferes with the oxygen monitor.

Well, this is it. I'm finally going to bed. Can't believe the time has come. Excited, nervous, and now second guessing myself although I know in my heart that this journey is very necessary. I'll post as much as possible as soon as I can. Praying for the remaining April preop team! May we all have safe, uneventful transitions to the post op side.

I believe you are up first for today! You will do great! I will be praying for you. I think if we weren't second guessing, we wouldn't be taken this process seriously. I thought I would be more nervous than I am but I believe the peace of God is making things better. I am

Trusting in him for you and me as today's events take place. Good luck and God Bless you!

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
