For my operation I had a tube inserted in my nose down into stomach that drained the blood.

I am so sorry this happened to you, but its manageable, you're in good hands, and very soon you will be onto recovery

Please try to surround yourself with your support people around you and know that in time the new you will be experience a much better life than led you to here.

Also I find the drugs they give you can be a bit of a downer!

Hi, I'm praying for you to have a great recovery. I'm a cup half full kind of person with how I think and the energy I manifest. You are going to be fine, I understand the being tired of poor health (trust me), but you had the sense to go to the ER to be treated timely and that's saying a lot about you. Try not to have regrets about anything that you do for you in life, that is wasted time & energy. You made an informed decision to take your life back from obesity and all of the other health issues that accompany being obese-- so try not to regret getting healthy. There are going to be a few hiccups and bumps in our roads that will be unique to our journeys and this is what makes the victory so great for each of us. Your son and husband are all in for you and will be strong when you are weak, scared, tired or uncertain. You can't reverse this, so try to make peace with your new tool and come to an agreement that you'll both work together and learn to support one another and compromise....Feel better and let us know.

Hang in there, Emma. Better days are coming. You have a lot of support here too. I know that it’s not the same as having people physically support you but mental support can be very helpful as well.

Keeping you in my thoughts and following your progress. Godspeed on healing and getting back on track.

Sending you gentle ((((hugs)))) across the net.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
