I've had 11 other medically needed surgeries and never took more than three or four days to recoup this is not good the pain is burning and stabbing and I stil cannot lay on my sides and the pain goes from front right to back I can't bend it's bad Dr said it's all internal bruising because he tried to keep incision small and pull thru but I think if rather but larger cut and less pain I have kids to tend to and I can do crap but cry moan and bitch that Elective suregery is stupid I'm not a negative person just so over feeling down I can't even be happy w weight lose due to pain Just wanna get to gym and feel well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IndygoVSG 0 Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) Hey guys! My surgeon is Dr. Trivedi at Advance Laparoscopic Associates and my surgery is scheduled for the 19th of this month at Hackensack Hospital. I'm actually waiting to hear back from them in regards to any preop diet, I'm a little worried because I was not given any prior instructions on this. Anybody else familiar with this situation? ????Dr. Trivedi did not have a pre-op diet for me. I had VSG 8/1/13. I'm down 83 pounds but still have about 100 to go. Take advantage of the first 6 months to a year loose as much as you can because the loss slows down. I am just getting back on track now.

Yeah, once I get throught this phase 1 and can start exercising safely, I'm going at it hard and accurately. I've heard that everyone hits a slump after about 6 months for a while.
