Anyone having surgery in Oct ?



Recommended Posts

I have been drinking propel at least every other day. It is zero calories too. Yesterday, all of a sudden I got this really uncomfortable pain. Like a very sore muscle of course under my large incision. I don't know if I did too much yesterday or what. I have my 2 week post op spot so I can bring it up then.

I hope it's okay. Keep us posted. :)

Was the pain almost like a pulling sensation?

Yes, I think when I reach up it definitely hurts, but even getting up and down now hurts more than it did this past weekend.

A few of us have gotten that pain. I only experienced it getting up. One member said she held a pillow against herself while she got up. The pulling sensation lasted on and off for a little over 3 weeks for me.

Thank you! I have been sneezing a lot and I hold a pillow, but I wonder if that is causing my pain. Sneezing really hurts!

My doctor said if you get really sick off some thing new then go back to your liquids for 24 hours to give your time to rest. Hope this helps! !

The scale finally moved in the right direction today!!! Not much of a move but I'll take it!!!!

That is awesome, Edie! My scale must be broken ;)

I'm 2 weeks post op and I feel sick to my stomach. I don't want to eat or drink anything and I have a nasty taste in my mouth. What could be wrong? I was fine last week. Getting scared now.

So I'm leaving my 1 week post op appointment and feeling pretty darn good! Down 11 lbs since surgery and surgeon said she's happy with my progress. She wants me to up my Protein intake which is going to be tough because the shakes are making me gag. Waiting on the Unjury chicken Soup mix to be delivered hoping that can help. Hope all of you are having a great day too!

I don't know what it is, don't know if I should go to the hospital or not.

      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
