@@NewgirlfromMd It's normal. I started my period the day after my surgery and was feeling extra sluggish. Light headed and no energy. I'm 4 days post op & finally feeling a Lil better. Hope you feel better soon

@@FortKnox78 or anyone else. I had my surgery on Wednesday & I'm always cold now. My hands feel like ice. Is this normal?

That's awesome @ Michelle Rynsai! My surgery is at 7:30 Wednesday morning! I only dropped 11 pounds on my 10 day pre-op diet. Good luck!

Having surgery on Wednesday and the only support I have is from my sis & kids. My mom breaks my heart on how cruel she could be. Idk how I'm gonna get thru recovery. I live with her.

@@jamella you will be fine and happy surgery to you! Keep in touch

@@FortKnox78 I feel you on the liquid diet but hang in there and happy sugery to you! My surgery is on Wednesday the 18th so I'm beyond nervous/ scared. Just keeping busy until then. Good luck!

@@highdesertblue how exciting for you and all of us! Good luck and let's keep in touch after our surgery..I'm nervous too but,just want it to be done already. I want to be able to get off bp meds etc. I'm sorry about your husband not being able to be there. As long as your mom is there. Happy surgery to you and keep in touch : )

Thank you @@cnjashton happy surgery day to you too!

@@timeforme2015 yes I'm thinking about how nice it will be to be off bp meds. I want to be healthy and happy. I'm over this 10 day liquid diet. I'm so hungry

@@timeforme2015 awesome! I need all the support. I'm getting really nervous

@@cnjashton my sister will be there with me. She took a day off of work to be with me.

I'm getting so nervous/ scared. Feel alone for some reason

@@asidle82 I'm also having my surgery on March 18th plus having my gallbladder removed the same time

@@Bonawanabfree thank you for all the info and I'm going to start getting prepared for my pre-op and surgery. On March 8th I'll have my food funeral. Just want to be healthy /happy. Even tho I've lost almost 40 pounds on .y own. My bp seems to go up and down. That stresses me out

@@Bonawanabfree what protein shakes are you going to take or are taking?I can't decide which ones to buy.My surgery is on March 18th

My surgery is scheduled for March 18 th. I'm super nervous, scared etc.

I got approved for the surgery but still need to lose 10 more pounds and have all me pre op tests

Did the endoscopy hurt? Do they put you to sleep? Does everyone have to have one of those before surgery?

Thank you Susan33

Susan33 so happy and excited for you! I'm so sorry about your brother. How crazy how we both got our call approval today. I'm sure you will be home by the 14th.

That's awesome Cupcake! My surgery was approved today! I'm doing everything to lower my bp n sugar n so far blood sugar is good. BP still Lil high.

Really? You were still able to have surgery with your bp being high? How did you know your bp was going up. I had to get a higher dose cause my bp wasn't going down. I'm praying the more I lose weight and after surgery it goes down. I'm tired of feeling tired

Thank you Susan!

I checked my bp yesterday and it was 168 over 80 then I calmed down and relaxed and went down to 146/70. So I don't know if it's cause I get anxious/ nervous. I take meds for my blood sugar where so far it's been good but yesterday I had a dizzy spell and my heart was beating fast so idk if it went down or what. It gave me anxiety so I had to take an anxiety pill. I don't know if it's stress or what but in tired of feeling like crap. I want to feel good and healthy like I once did

Aww how exciting and the best of luck when you have your surgery. Thank you!! I can't wait for a skinnier , healthier me!
