nusoulchild 4 Posted January 1, 2018 I am11 days from my surgery and it has gone really well. I was nervous as well and just tried to focus on my whys and the future and that helped me.. also prepping for after surgery helped a lot too... everyone’s journey is different and so breathe and try to relax as much as you can!! Good luck!! Happy New Year! And congrats on your surgery. Im trying my best to relax i know i will be a mess on the big day. I've already prepped my surgeon for tears lol. But it's a new year, so new me. Thank you for the kind words. SF Bay area - RNY 1/17/18 1 mudchickn reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SupernaturalWhovian 8 Posted January 7, 2018 I’m struggling so hard. I have no energy, no desire to consume anything. I feel like my liquids are just sitting in my chest. I nearly cried at how horrible I felt taking a shower this afternoon, even my cat was freaked out. (Haha he even waited to ask for his dinner) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps the co-morbidities will be enough? Or can you postpone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaliforniaCandy 67 Posted January 8, 2018 I watched a YouTube video of a woman just back from her orientation at Kaiser Sacramento I think and she said they were weighed.My orientation is Tuesday so I'm going to call the center tomorrow and tell them the situation and ask if they weigh.I'm not freaking out anymore. It is what it is. And if I have to be referred again, so be it.Thank you for replying. I really, really appreciate it.
