I am officially on the losers bench!!!! Not feeling to bad, but they gave me quite a few pain meds. 😬. Hope everyone else is doing well so far.

We just pulled up at our hospital, and yes it is!!!! We had an hour service to get here.

Best wishes, thoughts and prayers to all!!!

At hospital now, god it’s early lol. Best wishes to everyone today!!

My RNY went well, little to no complicaton they said. I was horribly groggy and sore when I came to but they have been on top of pain meds. At this point it's just very tender and my back hurts which is typical for me. Drifting in and out of sleep every 30 minutes or so. Again, typical for me lol. Drinking Water 15ml every 15-30 minutes. I've been burping a bit but no flatulence yet! Might be going home later this evening if the day goes well.

I just had my surgery today April 8th
What kind of surgery? Sleeve
Height? 5’6”
Starting weight? 260
Goal weight? 130

I had mine April 2

Good luck tomorrow sleevers, I’m pulling for you. ☺️

I went through that, too. It may go away in the next day or so. It did for me, and a calm acceptance came over me and I went in and had it done. I don't regret it. I kind of doubt you will regret it either. Last-minute cold feet are perfectly natural.

I forgot to add that the Doctor told me due to myself having mini gastric bypass they kept me on a IV the whole time replacing the units every six hours. Even then I came home a little lighter than when I left. I'mont complaining.

April 18 for me. 9 sleeps to go (a bit like counting down to Christmas!). I'm equal parts excited and terrified, lol.

I’m April 17

I survived today, just still groggy & super sore. Good luck those going tomorrow! See you on losers bench ☺️

Just looking to connect with other sleevers starting out around the same time and to learn from those who have been through the process and maintaining their weight loss.

Hang in there! My son is also ASD (although he is 29 now!). I know how hard it is to leave them and undertake a huge life change, but you have to think about long term health and keep a big picture view! Hope things go smoothly for you!

hmm...i hadn't thought of naming my sleeve, that sounds fun! Maybe i'll start calling mine a "test tube" or "beaker" like from the muppets...

Good luck with your surgery!

I find myself on a bit of a roller coaster at the moment--some times I feel completely ready (and my hospital team has been great), and sometimes i feel a little overwhelmed, and other times completely excited! How about you? Ready?

Congrats and good luck!!
