I had a mini bypass on the 7th, glad it is behind me and very excited about my future. Good luck to each and everyone of you :) I pray your paperwork and dates come sooner rather than later and that you operation me are smooth as can be. [emoji1374]

Hey guys! I had my DS on Feb 8th and I'm doing well. I'm fortunate to not have nausea. I do have one incision the hurts awful, it feels like something ripping every time I get up. This is definitely a learning curve to learn how to drink slow or it hurts or to eat slow and small bites or you will feel like rocks going down. I'm still a pound heavier than surgery but I'm not really worried about that now just healing. Hope everyone is doing well and healthy!!! [emoji173]

yeah I did receive some it was a small bottle and I'm trying to save my last little bit for really bad pain. Cracking down on these pain meds I think. I wish you the best of luck with your surgery! I know you'll do great!

I still have Norco left from knee surgery over a year ago so I don't think I could be called abusive of my medications.

Hello all! I had RNY on Tuesday morning 2/13. Hospital was great, but when I got home yesterday stuff got real. No more morphine or pain pump. I have some liquid hydrocodone, but that is only helping a little. I’ve been walking, and drinking. This is TOUGH. Anyone else have their surgery 2/13?

I hope when my day comes if I am uncomfortable to remember "I just got stabbed." Granted a scalpel instead of a butcher

knife but it will still hurt. I tell everybody to,be brave and tough it out but let's see how it will be when it's ME. Your friend[emoji197]

      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.
