I came in yesterday at 7:30am. They did some routine tests on me (blood work, sugar). Once they got ready to take me back they gave me some anxiety and nausea meds. I was pretty loopy before they started. She put oxygen over my face and I was out!. Woke up in recovery and they gave me lots of meds I was then wheeled of to my room.i didn't have anything to eat until just now. They brought me chicken broth, hello and unsweetened tea.

You'll do great on your surgery! The doctor said there weren't any complications. Yay!

That sounds just like mine! Im in a tiny clinic thats neon blue. But great service from my staff. I have popsicles today and I showered. I only came out of surgery last night at 10pm.

oh gosh! Thank goodness you're ok. :)

I had surgery June 8th. I'm down 60lbs from high weight, 45 down since surgery! I feel awesome. I truly can't remember feeling this good before. In loving taking classes at the gym. Zumba is so much fun. I'm finding going to class is the best part of my day. Exercising has taken the place of food when I'm upset/stressed etc. I found a class to go to last night, just cuz I was grumpy and wanted to get outta the house. It's awesome. :)

      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.
