This is confusing. I started a new Topic in the Post-surgery Bypass Forum but on the side of the pre-surgery forum on Recent Topics, it shows the new topic OCTOBER 2014. I don't get it

new topcs for any forum are posted there, confusing for sure

still puking, so now they say gatorade and Miralax. w/6 ducolax pills. kids have gone to store.

and the bit I did keep down is kicking in. Hopefully the vomiting has stopped.

@smiley922. So sorry your have to go thru that . Quite frankly I'd rather do 2 weeks of PreOp liquids like my Surgeon ordered. It's amazing how different the PreOps are for everyone.

I found your new post Beni!

So my family had taco pizza tonight. I hid out in my bedroom and spent about an hour talking to my BFF on the phone. Left over pizza was still sitting in the kitchen when I came down. I had to get it out to the garbage right away!!

Another favorite I didn't eat "before."

Best of luck gladiators, you have this.

Thank Beni & all my fellow October Surgery BP friends! My husband took me to the movies to relax, my bag is packed & I'm eating my dinner now ... Rushing before NPO @ Midnight. I will check in tomorrow at NYU Langone Med Center at 9:am sharp -my surgery is scheduled for 10:30am. I'm a little nervous but ready to be on the road to Recovery & PostOp. Wishing all the best to my fellow Gladiators. I'm asking for the patch & I have my GasX strips & a robe to cover me during my Laps around the Nurses Station. I went with Sweats to wear to and from the hospital & packed my husbands car with two pillows and a blanket for the ride home. I'm ready to Defy Gravity. & Roar! ????

Sorry have just now posted yesterday was my surgery, RNY. I'm in bed I got up to the chair last night for a couple hours. Having pain mostly on the incision site they gave me a PCA with Fentanyl. Not able to eat or drink anything until after I have an upper G.I. this morning.post-234841-1413286236801_thumb.jpg post-234841-14132862662572_thumb.jpgopost-234841-1413286345096_thumb.jpg1 drain which should come out tomorrow. One of the doctors said that I was making them laugh all the way to the OR. I don't remember that, but it's probably true.

They found a hernia and they went in and they sewed it but told me I would have to come back after I've lost some weight to have the hernia repaired completely. I have been complaining about my bellybutton hurting for the last year to my G.I. doctor to my OB guy to my regular doctor. Every time my period came around, my bellybutton hurt really really bad. Guess now we know why.

      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.
