Amelia2019 got a reaction from jami.1992 in To Tell or NOT to Tell
So far I’ve decided not to tell I was approved twice and they were canceled because I had a seizure the week before 😞! The one person I did bring it up to said surgery is not the answer just eat better and exercise..... she doesn’t have 210 lbs to lose ☹️

I wasn’t worried during the whole three year process of trying to get it done. A week before my surgery I lost my mind and was all of a sudden scared that I might die in surgery(literally hit me like a brick wall). My mom(who also had gastric bypass had the same dr as me) told me it’s like taking a bandaid off for them. I even looked up the chances of death(I thought it was stupid of me but it oddly made me feel better) and you have a higher chance of dying from gallbladder or hip surgery. I was so scared I even watched a video of the surgery being performed to see what might go wrong. My mom said I was crazy but they did it with ease and it made me feel better 😂

Oh no I just read it got pushed back! I am so sorry they did that to me three times and each time I was super devastated. Don’t worry keep your head up! You’ll be going in for surgery before you know it.

Yes the last time I tried for surgery I did the group therapy and it was wonderful and I plan and going again -

I can relate...I'm afraid of PMS cravings and that feeling that nothing will satisfy my hunger. I am completely aware that my cravings are based in hormonal fluctuations but I can only wait and see.

pretty much nobody dies from this. Weight loss surgeries are very safe these days - it's not like it was back in the 60s or 70s. Mortality rate on RNY is 0.3%. VSG is even lower (I can't remember that one since I didn't get VSG, so I wasn't paying attention). At any rate, you have at least a 99.7% chance of pulling through just fine. And you will!

This is me pre-op (left) and 5 months post-op VSG (right). Will update after this stall ends and I start losing again.

This is my 3rd time going for the sleeve , I’ve mentioned this before! I was so afraid of dying during surgery the first two times . Yes that fear is still there of course but my want of a better life is more than this fear !!! Right now I’m concerned about my willpower! I eat fine during the day no cheating no over eating! But when I wake up in the middle of the night I go crazy for carbs and the worst food ☹️

Amelia2019 got a reaction from kim2girls in RNY or Sleeve
I’m choosing the sleeve because I’m on a lot of medications and they mentioned something about the absorption is better with the sleeve

I look at my future sleeve as an accountability partner that I am not ever going to be able to get rid of! I think and HOPE that having that mindset will help my willpower. Good luck to you!

I’d like to fit in an airline seat without spilling over into the seat next to me.
I’d like not to have to ask for the seatbelt extender.
I’d like to not have to scan the room for armless chairs.
I’d like to be able to sit in a comfy armchair and be able to get out of it easily.
I want to be able to move that “50 lb” thingy on the doctor’s scale to the left... twice, even 3 times! YAY!

I just thought of another one, to take a sit-down bath,not displace so much Water must be nice to not see the water rise so much you're not afraid it will over- flow. And then after soaking in the warm relaxing water, to not have to call someone to pop you free enough that you can get out.
Maybe,i should continue being a shower-er and just let the warm spray rain down on my sore areas, but dang it, I want it all!
