Hi makingadjustments, I think what you are feeling and thinking is all entirely normal. In some ways, looking back I wish I'd freaked out a little before surgery, but I didn't, I freaked out when I came out of surgery "what the hell did I just do"?????? Just wanted to reassure you and tell you those thoughts will settle and many many people have them. I also had remorse initially, but that has settled too. I suppose you have to ask yourself the question "Would I be happy if I didn't go through with the surgery, and just stay exactly the same as I am right now???" You've been wanting this change. It's just pre surgery jitters. If you feel having the surgery is really really wrong, can you call the surgery and discuss with someone from their support team?

I've read 15 minute walk, twice a day. Just for starters that is

AAAAWWWWW..................you poor thing........this journey is horrible enough without this as well for you.......how long ago did you run out of your meds????? that could be a big contributing factor (hopefully)

Hi All,, I was sleeved last Friday at Wesley hospital (but I'm from Gold Coast). Sounds like you made the right choices with hospitals (I certainly didn't - some of the Wesley nurses obviously resent people addressing their weight issues because they've obviously never been overweight). I love my Dr thought (Dr Adib) and the whole support team at the centre. Did you guys have to pay for a compulsory support package for 12 month support post op?

I took mine right up to the night before surgery and have never missed one night. No issues what so ever. My Dr didn't have an issue with it.

I don't want to scare anyone out there about to have op, but I'm 6 days post op and it has been a total and complete nightmare - worse than I could have possibly ever imagined. But wait.........it's not all because of the op, it's because of the horrible and incompetent nurses who had no empathy or compassion and failed to notice they were injecting me with a drug I was having serious negative reaction to. Getting better now each and every day and the team at WLSA have been absolute godsends. Can only get better from here xx
