Hey ladies. I'm doing well too. Gas pain makes it challenging to breathe when I'm not on pain killers, but that's my only complaint. Good luck with everything today!

So, I have struggled. :(

I had a reaction to the anesthesia and have been throwing up. Thank heavens for phenergan but all I want to do is sleep. My back also has been bothering me (from a herniated disc); my back injection wore off last week.

I am walking but had a hard time drinking anything. Are you all noticing a difference in your taste buds? It is weird that I'm not hungry.

I'm reminding myself that this is all temporary. Hugs to you all!!!!!

@@thundermama I'm really sorry you're have such a hard time! I'm sending you positive, healing energy. I haven't noticed a difference in taste, mostly I'm just crazy thirsty. Keep us posted on your recovery

I'm having a tough time with pain. Ever since the PCA pump stopped I cannot be pain free. My upper abdomen is still full of a lot of air. I try to get up and walk around the house every hour.

I can only get in 2 sips of Water, hot tea or Jello .

My pain is just unbearable at times. I came home yesterday. I was doing great til I got home..

Very strange

Hang in there..we can do 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.
