Lizrios 50 Posted June 8, 2023 Well I did it! The slight pain I feel is bc of hernia repair. No nausea Everything went smooth I can’t believe I did it! 2 Brandiwine77 and SleeveToBypass2023 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AmandaD. 35 Posted June 8, 2023 Great job, Lizrios!! I had HH repair too and the gas pain around that area is the area that “hurts the most”. Just woke up for more lab work… they’re going to have me up for more tests & starting full liquid already today! Good luck everyone, we all got this!! 1 SleeveToBypass2023 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lizrios 50 Posted June 8, 2023 I had my surgery yesterday too! I had hernia repair as well, and that’s the only thing that is tender. I’ve been walking better than I was before surgery. I was scared and made myself think it was worse than what it was. I’m doing good! I’m not hungry at all. 1 Brandiwine77 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m still going to do it, but just wondered if I’m the only one feeling like this. I have been vacillating for almost two years about having weight loss surgery. I’m still SO anxious! My surgery is next Wednesday, the 14th. I am on my 1000 calorie/mostly Protein Shake pre-surgery diet. I am already missing food. I am looking forward to not having hunger pains and pangs. I wish everyone a successful surgery, uneventful recovery and continuing success! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s at 2:15 PM central time I had the surgery at 69 and that worried me. I will be 70 in August. Was not a factor in how I Ifeel now that I had the surgery.

HelenF41 1 Posted June 8, 2023 Hello everyone, My surgery is on June 16. I'm more excited than anything else. I started the journey at 328 lbs and one week in the preop diet (two Protein Shakes, 4 oz of lean meat and unlimited non-starchy veggies per day) I am at 315 lbs. You all are an inspiration and I love reading through everyone's posts. Keep up the good work everyone! 1 Brandiwine77 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
