I am actually feeling pretty nervous! Butterflies in my stomach since two days ago, and I still have 13 days until the surgery. At this rate, I will be hyperventilating with high blood pressure on the day of. I still believe I'm making the right decision, but any time I think about it, I feel nervous.

How are you doing?

I get doubts when I tell people what I'm doing. It seems everyone has to will there expert opinions onto me. cause they know someone who had it and gained all the weight back.. i am nervous about making weight

Hello,

I was approved for surgery last Thursday and scheduled the actual surgery date for May 15th. I am beyond excited! I am pleased with how smooth the insurance approval went. It took one day to get an approval so thankfully I did not have to wait. Anyone else have surgery in May? And for those of you who have already had surgery what do I pack in my hospital bag? I am so looking forward to this next chapter in my life.

Hi, I'm May 2nd. I am going to pack leggings and loose tshirts for daytime. A loose long cardigan if it's cold. Made sure I have comfy undies. I have stretch crop top type bras that pull on over head. Much more comfy than proper wire ones. I have some loose nighties for sleep time. I'll bring a light dressing gown in case I'm worse than I expect first day and not up to dressing. It's nice to have some coverage if nurses and drs in and out. God I hope I get a private room.

I’m scheduled for May 2nd, too!! I’m thinking about bringing some loose loungewear, and maybe a maxi dress or something. Hopefully we will only be in the hospital for one night! I hadn’t even thought about how many people may be in a room together, I wish I’d asked!
How are you feeling as the day approaches? I feel like I’m living in the twilight zone, like this can’t really be happening!

That's a good idea on dresses. I will pack a coupon loose swing dresses I have. Often hospital rooms are hot. I am nervous but excited to start my weight loss journey. I have some photos near my fridge of when I was size 8-10 to keep in mind how good it will be to slim down if I'm struggling at any point.

Congrats, that is soooo exciting!!! I had mine about 3 weeks ago! I would recommend packing the loosest stretchy pants you can find. Anything hugging your tummy will feel worse then you will already feel. Good luck! [emoji5]
