beauty and the beast 26 Posted July 1, 2016 I'm scared of possible complications like a leak or something. I'm also scared of how diffrent my eating habits will be once the surgery is over. I guess It's normal to feel this way. Sent from my SCH-I545 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tcon 305 Posted July 2, 2016 Hello all! It's normal to be nervous. As long as you follow your surgeon and NUT's instructions you will be fine. July 31st is my 1 year anniversary. I've lost 100 pounds. I would like to lose another 10 pounds but I'm happy either way. I feel better and have a lot more confidence. I was out of work for 2 weeks and 3 days. I had gastric sleeve, my gallbladder removed and a hiatal hernia. The health benefits outweigh the risk. Good luck ladies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cant beleive they removed your gall blader and fixed hernia...that's alot! I'm nervous about so many things but one of my biggest fears is getting a leak. I have heard a few horror stories. I also want to be able to get all my fluids in those first few days. Everyone says that it's hard at first but that it gets easier as time goes on. Just want to get this weight off already.

Sent from my SCH-I545 using the BariatricPal App It's not going to be a walk in the park but it's well worth and gets easier with time....well somewhat easier. The head hunger and desires kick back in over time. So make sure you start making healthy choices from the beginning. I have been doing combination of Whole 30 and Paleo eating/dieting for the the last month. The more I eat healthy the more I want to and crave healthy foods. My hospital gave me a ton of the one ounce medicine cups and told me to sip one every 10-15 minutes. I did that for the first 3-4 days but got tired of filling those little things up so started drinking out of a regular cup or bottle. It did help me from drinking too much at one time. You will do great! Just stick with the plan and start making healthy choices from the beginning. If you see you're picking up bad habits put a stop to them before they get out of control. Good Luck!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
