    Look to the positives after surgery to help relieve the anxiety. Once your at the hospital they can give you something to relax you.

    I was sleeves 3/26 and went home yesterday. I feel 100%better since coming home. I've had a little soreness at the incisions when I go from laying to sitting but not to bad. The gas pains are finally gone and thank God for that. I was able to take all my meds this morning and 5 oz Of a slim fast low carb. Will keep pushing forward.

    I'm not going to lie I was close. With Easter dinner it was one of the hardest things to deal with. BUT I conquered, removed myself from the situation and had some Water and some ice pops!!! THANK GOD FOR ICE POPS!!!!! I feel right now we really don't have any room for error and we have to be as strong as can be in the beginning!

    Hi my name is Larry and I'm a Registered Nurse in dialysis for the las 15 years. I'm actually having my surgery tomorrow at 7:30am. I was actually convinced to do the procedure after several of my patients had bypass to get on the transplant list. This will be my first hospitalization and surgery ever, no I'm a little nervous hut ready at the same time. My surgeon bases on my BMI on requires me to be NPO after midnight and hopefully just an overnight stay in the hospital. My pre-op consisted of upper GI, abdominal US, echocardiogram, EKG, CXR and about 11 tubes of blood. He said everything looked great so that's good. I will keep you posted.

    You are correct in this being a tool. I have come to terms with a lifestyle change. I have resolved the fact that I have to eat, exercise and just live healthier. My goal weight loss is 100 lbs and to begin exercising as soon S I get the ok.
