My surgery is 12/31... New Year's Eve!

I'm freaking out about the 7-day liquid diet for pre-op. Not because of the diet, but it will be during Christmas and much of my family will be around and they don't know (only hubby knows). So, somehow, someway, I hope to stay under the radar!!!!!

I had the RNY surgery yesterday. Yesterday was s vey rough day the pain was awful they ended up giving me dilauded to get my pain under control . I was able to walk ten laps yesterday by the evening time I pretty much had pain medication every 4 hours though out the night. I walked 3 laps this morning around 3 am. I got more pain medication this morning around 8 pm after waiting 2 hours for it this time I had liquid po and IV pain medication. I walked another 5 laps (I'm suppose to walk 20 laps today to help the gas to move) I am finally starting to feel a little better. I'm on my last bag of IV antibiotics Sill on IV fluids at 125 ml/ hour. I can have 60 ml of Clear Liquids per hour. I've had no nausea or vomiting so far. I'm grateful for that. I pray this day will be much better than yesterday sine I am suppose to go home tomorrow.

      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
