Ya it sucks I was 19th around 5 pm or so.I came home Tuesday 20th around 8 pm.I have been having trouble getting my Water in.I am doing better day by day.Today I should be t at least 50 oz.So it is getting better.I was prepared to be miserable first 2 weeks though.I Was calling around like crazy today trying to find a urgent care that would do IV drip so I dont have to spend crazy mny at emergency room just for fluids.I found one so at least if I get to a point where i think i need it I can go.
Just had mine on Nov 19th. So far so good. Basically no pain except for one of the incisions, but very minor. Indigestion/heartburn was bad days 1-2 but is fine now (not sure of that's the meds or not).
Felt a million times better after getting up and walking post-op. 3 Day hospital stay.
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.
