Did they mention the length of your hospital stay?

@Abrial was your family orginally Portuguese? Your very pretty name. might be from there or the Canary Islands, I always heard they were very skillful fisherman.

Actually Abrial is a user name I use and not my real one. My family is Irish and my real name is Latin (go figure). I have a crazy mom, that I love and is wonderfully supportive (as is my whole family and my husband’s too).

I got Abrial from an anime (Crest of Stars) and the first time I went to use it I could not get the correct spelling Abriel and used the French spelling. I have stayed with that spelling for years now. Thank you for the compliment though.

Abriel I am Irish enough my 2 sons names: Kevin,and Bryan .I have strawberry blonde hair, is it possible to be an overweight Celtic princess? Malones In my mother's side, Murphy in my father's but 1 extra generation farther back. I suspect that there is Native American in my paternal ancestry but they never admitted it. Do you have Wikipedia on your cell phone or computer? If so look,up Peoria indians, there should be among the pictures --one of a middle aged woman, the N.A. woman is the spitting image,of Aunt Minnie my father"s older sister, instead of someone hidden in a woodpile, I may have somebody lurking in the woods. That branch of family- Priest, but I think it's should have been Shaman. Oh well,, most of us Americans are mutts anyway- our ancestors came from a multitude of different lands. But we do have a can -do attitude and hybrid vigor in us all[emoji13][emoji38][emoji12]

I was told 1 or 2 days, if no complications, fingers crossed. Im thinking about sleeping position with the incisions, Im a part side/back sleeper. Only time will tell.

      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.
