Surgery On The 16Th.... Anyone Else??



Recommended Posts

Hi all!

With much insurance issues, problems with Iron levels and drama from the process I am so happy to say that on Thursday I will be officially on the other side of this process! I am both nervous and excited.... scared and eager.... and the emotions go on and on.... I have lots of issues with anesthisa and nausea so hopefully they aren't too difficult.

Anyone else having surgery on Thursday? I am pretty much flying solo on this one, besides my husband for support.... I wish everyone else lots of success and look forward to reporting as soon as I am out of surgery!

Thanks!!

Good luck! I have mine set for the 31st of this month and I'm scared and eager as well. Do you have any helpful hints and/or suggestions for the liquid diet? I start that this Friday..

I had an abnormal EKG and went to the Cardiologist twice for follow ups and they said I was fine and that sometimes some people just have very "mild" abnormal EKG's.. I hope your Dr. says the same :unsure:.

Well everyone... the time is ticking down now! I have been working so hard to make sure I do a perfect last few days of my diet, I had a few off days earlier on. I am excited to get this started and ready to go! I don't get my time to report until tomorrow so I am curious when I will actually have the surgery but am glad I am staying the night. Two little kids at home and a rough time with nausea so I am going to take the extra time they give me gladly!

Wishing everyone a great surgery tomorrow and Thursday! We will all do great! Please share with me your post surgery doings.... I'll need to hear from everyone as I start my journey!!

:rolleyes:

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
