Good for you! Don't be scared to death. Be thrilled for LIFE!!!!!!!!! I haven't had mine yet, but so understand the anxiety effect of planning for this big step! Look at this as one huge adventure. Prayers out there for you and I know you'll be writing to us soon.

I will fly to San Diego tonight then go to Tijuana tomorrow morning and have my surgery with Dr. Corvala . I will fly home Saturday. Please keep me and the wife in your prayers. I am scared to death..Johnny

I just came from there (VSG). Everything will be fine. You will be surprised as to how fast you will stat to feel better. The first 2 days are uncomfortable but nothing that you cannot manage, especially with your wife at your side. If you feel that you are too anxious, ask them for a little benzo. It worked wonders with me. Calming vibes going your way. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Good luck and best wishes Johnny!!! Positive thoughts and prayers are being sent your way ;-) It's perfectly normal to have anxiety. You will do great. Please post when you are able to.

Hugs,

      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! 😞
