Thinking about everyone who's having surgery this week. I"m a week post op today and doing great. hardly any pain at all haven't used any meds since i left the hospital and already lost 14 lbs. Just try to concentrate on what's on the other side and how it's going to improve life for you. :)

I had my post op visit today and I am down 15 lbs! Feeling great! Still get tired but no pain Meds. I already feel good about my choice to improve my overall health! Good luck to everyone that has yet to go!

Well I made it through the surgery June 4th. I was in the hospital an extra day because I was so nauseous. Now that I am home I am able to keep Protein and Water down but I am so fatigue. Has anyone else felt that way and what did you do.

i had surgery the same day as you and i was really nauseous in the hospital but it got better when i got home. i still have some now. but every day is different. i had one day that i felt like i didn't even have surgery then the next day i was so fatigued that i was on the sofa all day.

WOW Just 3 more days to go! I officially start my liquid diet tomorrow but I am prepping myself today by drinking my Protein and only eating a small amount for lunch. Lets just say I am not a big fan of Protein Drinks so I am going to have to get my game face on for a few months LOL I just cant stand the after taste. :unsure:

My 10 day countdown starts tomorrow. My pre-op is Thursday. I am more worried about the pre-op than the surgery. This will be my 7th surgery so I am not scared of being put under the anesthesia or anything like that. However all my surgeries have been on my back. So I am a little nervous about having an abdominal surgery. I could handle the pain of having my spine fused twice, I think I can do 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.
