Paloomino78 31 Posted November 15, 2017 Alright, Monday the 20th is the day scheduled for my surgery. Currently I've been on a liquid diet since the 30th of Oct. been the hardest thing I've ever done ! But thinking into the future I'm not sure I'm making the right decision. Has it been worth the struggles for you that have had the surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YES, YES, YES for me it was definitely worth it.!! I had a very easy recovery you might have some pain, gas, other normal side effects right after surgery. but in the long run, for me, (and many many/most OP) the WLS is totally worth it!! when/if you read bad stories/posts they stick out in your head - you don't see the posts about how wonderful things have gone. as far as your cold feet? - put a pair of socks on silly head common phrase many people say, "my only regret is not doing WLS sooner" good luck on monday speedy recovery kathy 1 Paloomino78 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dimples58 167 Posted November 16, 2017 Yes, it has been worth every moment since my surgery date of July 26, 2017. I just wish I would have done it sooner. It's normal to get cold feet as this is a big lifestyle decision. You still have a few more days to research, talk to others who had the surger and most importantly pray that you will have no regrets. It will take a few adjustments afterwards, but it's durable. I love my sleeve. I've lost a total of 80lbs and feel great. No more knee pain. Diabetis and high blood pressure is gone. You will do fine I wish you all the bes in the new and excited journey. Keep us posted. We're here to support you. 3 Atslady, fclenz and Paloomino78 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
