It's normal to feel nervous. I started bawling when they told me to say goodbye to my family that were in the staging area with me. Before you know it, the surgery will be over and you'll wonder why you were ever nervous.

Best of luck to you!

It's normal to be nervous...your starting a journey to a new life!! It will take some getting used to especially the first month. My only suggestion is to to listen to your doctor and all will be fine.

Good Luck!!

Hi everyone :) I am just now waiting for my wheelchair to get here because I've been discharged.

Surgery went great according to what the surgeon told my mom but I was in a lot of pain once I woke up in recovery. They pumped me full of meds. Gas pain is mild in my shoulders but it hurts to try to get a cleansing breath. Hopefully this goes away soon, more annoying that painful.

I am quite nauseous because I haven't eaten since before 10PM last night. All I know is I can't wait for some Jello and sugar free Popsicles as soon as I get home.

I am officially in band land!!!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
