Omg! Good to hear or read that someone else feels the same way I do. I didn't realize how much I did turn to food but I am so excited for this journey.

Awesome. I had to admit it to myself, and that was not easy. Glad I'm not the only one.

I completely understand it's hard for me to go slow. I was actually a slow eater before the surgery but now I feel like I have to go super slow and I also get full quickly. I think little by little we will get a hang of it.

Girl, I hope so..lol...it's been life changing for sure I didn't realize how much food actually played a role in my life and now I feel like I lost my go to comfort.feels strange. I'm a bundle of different emotions not sure what I'm feeling. But I don't regret it.

Hey sleeve twin haha! Just take it slow I would and still have a bit of pain if I eat to fast. Honestly sometimes I forget I even had the surgery because thank God I have not had any problems.

Thanks, lucky you. I do try to eat slow,which is a little hard for me, it doesn't take much to make me full now. Glad you're doing well.

Hello, congratulations on your surgery. What helped me was a heating pad, I placed it on my chest, shoulders and tummy. Took pain meds in liquid form of course, lasted on my left and that helped me. Good luck. It will go away and get better, every day will be better.

I have a great team, surgeon, and dietician that work together and they have been awesome. I was given 2 folders with all the information I needed, it's my Bible, and I go to it daily. In my opinion, I knew this was a process, and it's major surgery and a life changing decision. We cannot expect for it to be a magic wand. It took years to put on the extra pounds, I know this will take work and this surgery is just a jump start. I will take it easy on my recovery, enjoy my quiet times, reflect and plan on my next step to go back to the gym. I wish you all a speedy recovery and best of luck with your future self, which will be a much smaller version, but a much more incredible version.

Yes, I did have the sleeve. I went in on a Monday and left on Wednesday. I did have a lot of pain in the hospital, I was on morphine every 6 hours and anti nausea meds every 4 along with anti biotics. I had an awesome surgeon. I was vomiting the first day after I wanted to die I felt so sick. But I really wanted this and nothing was going to get in my way.

Good luck.

Thank you!! Appreciate your comments. How are you doing?
I'm feeling much better, I'm trying not to be hard on myself, it took a lot of years to put this extra weight on, I can't expect it to all be gone overnight. I follow my doctor's orders to the letter, he gave me good meds to deal with all the issues like nausea and pain. It does get better, take it easy and be good to yourself, rest and sleep as much as you can.

How are you doing? Did the surgery go well?
Yes it went well no complications. Stayed in the hospital for 3 days, the first few days where rough, lot of pain, nausea. I followed my doctor's orders took my meds and I started feeling better.

Hi, I didn't set up a recliner, my Doctor advised me to take it easy, rest as much as possible, sleep will be your friend. No lifting, pulling, 5lbs or more for a few weeks. Your body is healing from major surgery and it's healing from the inside, so be good to yourself, and rest, rest, rest.

Hi, congratulations on your surgery. Feeling nervous is normal, I was scared out of my mind..lol...my husband went with me, but after I was in my room I sent him home. I do advice having a support person or persons. Don't go alone would be my advice. You will be groggy after surgery and you won't remember anything the doctor tells you. You'll be OK, good luck and we'll be here when you get back.
