Thank you NK and Ebony. I'm all prepped in the admissions room but got a few people ahead of me first. Feeling strangely calm though. I appreciate the messages. Chat to you on the flip side

Best of luck for tomorrow! Hope all goes well for you :)

It is great that your op is early in the morning!

My admission was at 2 pm, and I didn't get operated on till 7 pm.

At least the pre-med drugs I was given, put me to sleep, so the wait didn't seem that long .....

All the best!

Cheers @Krakow57. I've gotten all the nerves out. I'm off to have floatation tank session today as a little relaxing treat before the big day. ????

Well its day four post op. I got discharged yesterday and now I'm back home. I must say....Day two was a whole lot of nausea and vomiting....could barely keep anything down, not through lack of trying....yesterday I vomited once and that was late at night. Managed to keep down a bit of fluids but probably need to up my intake a bit. See how today pans out nausea and pain wise. 5kg down so I'm pretty stoked about that as well....the little bit of pain I am going through now will be worth the extra time I get spend with my family. ????????

Were you given any Zofran wafers for nausea?

Hope it gets better for you, otherwise call your surgeon.

Be careful re dehydration. I ended up getting Hydralyte (electrolyte fluid) for any emergencies, as I got badly dehydrated on day 10 or 12. It was a nasty experience. It felt like I was going into shock! Hydralyte fixed it in 15 minutes.

Good luck with your recovery!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      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.
