After the anesthesia wore off I was in so much pain. They gave me pain medication and that eliminated the pain right away. I'm a tad bit drowsy though. I'm excited and ready to take on this journey.

The key is to stay positive step by step little by little. I mean I'm new at this too but I'm doing my best to stay positive. I was sore for a couple of days but I'm getting better. It will get better for you too. Blessings

Hello everyone. I am new to the group. I just recently just found out about this group. This is my 1st post. 6 months has flown by. I am extremely nervous. Right now I am on my way to the hospital. My stomach has been doing flips. I have read some post that has been very helpful. I look forward to interacting with many of you beautiful souls. Please pray for me. Thank you #PositiveVibesOnly

Congrats! I go home tomorrow. Had some small things that needed to happen before going home. Hope your first day at home is going well and you are feeling supported and getting rest.

      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.

      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.
