    Still in the hospital thought they would release me by now. I am not in pain and the nausea is low. I can't seem to drink the 4 oz an hour. It's so frustrating that I can't do it and they won't let me go until I can. I really hate this hospital.

    I one day post op and I have some discomfort. This hospital is making this worse for me. After my surgery the kept me in Recovery room for 12 hour, I could used the phone, I couldn't call people to let them know I was safe, I couldn't walk around, and could have visitors. This was very isolating but the night shift fix the problem and got me a room. So now I am in my room have almost zero pain tons of nausea. The nurse stop coming in to see me and the discharge me without giving me any liquids. I was like the surgeon said I need to drink 4oz in an hour before I can leave, she told me that wasn't true so i call my surgeon myself. I am still in the hospital can't wait to go home tomorrow!!!!!

    This help alot... thanks Ladies, i think she might be jealous a lil... but i don't know. i am very open about my process and she is the first person who freaked me out. I can see why people don't want to tell other about the surgery now.

    Now I am freaking the f-ck out

    So my insurance approve my surgery today which is the 26th of June. I was a little excited, but then a lady I work with said that there is something wrong, that i was approved to fast and I should have been made to go on a diet and lose weight first that it never is approve that fast. That its strange and weird and now i am paranoid. I started my process May 1st. I have been to one face to face with the surgeon but I have had quite a few conversation with my surgical coordinator. I did the psyc stuff, nutritional evaluation, blood work, chest xray , ekg, saw my doctor, took a health class. I don't have to do the pre-diet stuff for them but I am am doing that on my own, i been slowly starting to cut back on food to prepare. They gave me a date right away is that normal? Now I am freaking out. I am a worrier in the first place and now i am so worried... she in my head.

    Is it weird that I am scared of losing weight

    Thanks everyone makes me feel a lot better knowing it not just me. Gman great words... I can only wait and see what the future holds.
  14. I started gaining weight around 12, before that I was thin. I don't remember what it felt like not to be fat. I feel like all of my mannerism, my personality, my understanding of people, my empathy, who i am as a person is because I am fat and had to learn how to exist in a skinny world. I feel like I am me, because i am fat. So now i am worry about not being fat, that as the pounds leave me, other pieces of who i am will to. that i will wake up and be different and that scares me the most. Don't get me wrong i know my quality of life will improve 100 times over when i lose weight, i will be able to do things i can't do now because i am to big to slow, and i get to tired to fast. I know my health will get better, health is the biggest reason i am doing this. but I am just scare of not being fat.....
