Surgery in 7 hours, can't sleep



Recommended Posts

I have surgery in a few hours and am so anxious, I only got about 2 hours of sleep which I'm sure I'll regret. No pre-diets required, only no food or liquids after 12. For some reason I keep thinking about that double strawberry cream ice cream I passed on after dinner. Regretting it now. It's gonna be a while bebore I'll be able to have that again. Been up reading all kinds of threads here and laughing to myself about my mother's attempt this morning to find out how much I actually weigh. I refused to tell her because she's sure to use that info in some kind of hurtful way. She couldn't believe I wouldn't tell her. Ha! Ha! Gonna try to get an hour or 2 sleep (on my stomach) cause I won't be able to. Naturally a belly sleeper. Will fill you guys in later on how everything went. Must remember to bring my camera to document it. Goodbye and Good Morning.

You will do great! I remember not sleeping the night before too and wishing I had asked the DR. for a sleeping pill. You will catch up although it was a week post-op before I was comfortable enough to get a good night's sleep. Congratulations this is the beginning and you will never have to hide your weight again (I fully understand that one)!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
