So sorry i didn't see that before i posted. The day when you can use the hand wash cloth is a day your rejoice! Hang in there everyday is an improvement.

On My 2nd day in the hospital I truly enjoyed washing up and changed into my own pj 's and walked the hallways with a skip in my step. :)

The anesthesia is probably having an affect on you still, as well! Hang in there, this will all pass soon. Your journey has begun, celebrate!!! :)

I know, I just keep thinking this muscle pain will never go away and I'll be walking like the hunchback forever. Just not feeling like myself

Not that it's the same, but I'm 9 days out and started crying today because my doctor (my family doc) didn't have any open appointments today to look at the rash I've had since surgery. Like, hung up the phone and cried like a baby.

You're only 2 days out. All the meds in your system.... Just let yourself cry it out. It will get better. Everyday has gotten better for me. Gas has gone away, and the pain gets less everyday. And it gets easier to get up/down/around. I promise. ;)

I cried today. I'd been out and about with my friend everywhere. EVERYWHERE!!!! We are both moving and were shopping around for things we needed and I was in the middle of Walmart and this overwhelming fatigue hit me. I felt so tired and I just started to cry. Right there in front of the soy sauce and rice noodles. I had to go sit in the car. I know. I'm a weirdo.

But my guy is in Washington state and I'm in Oklahoma. I haven't seen him since October and it just hit me that he's not here to bolster me when I need support. I felt utterly alone in an ocean full of bodies. And the fatigue from doing too much today got to me.

I know right now that my body is being flooded with hormones and it's normal to be overly emotional, but that didn't stop it from happening.

I just wanna give you your big of hug! I wish we lived closer, I'd come over and we could get chocolate wasted on a whole 3 bites of pudding. (I hope that at least gave you a chuckle. )

Well, not totally. I got up and grabbed a pudding cup too. We just got chocolate wasted 1000 (or however many miles apart we are) apart.

This happened to me too right after surgery. I just wanted to weep like a small child for absolutely NO reason. Your hormones are confused, your body is traumatized and I have read losing weight will release more hormones. Hang in there and just rest. It'll get better!!!

I am 2 days post op. I am not in any pain. The nausea sucks but I am handling it ok. I just feel like part of me has died. I am so depressed. I am sitting here and I feel like my choices have been taken away from me. I can no longer get up and grab whatever I want and put in my mouth. I can no longer sit down and eat normally with my family. I have been home for two dinners so far and I sat in the living room while they ate. I could smell all the food. I am feeling hungry and I don't think that is normal from what I hear. Just feeling pretty sad.

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

    • buildabetteranna

      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
