This is natural. I had a major breakdown a few days before surgery. I was nervous until I was under in the hospital. Just know that you're decision is best for you and be excited. Good luck.

I got them really bad when I was told that I was approved. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. But I never had any problem once I got to the hospital. I shocked my self when I was so calm about the whole thing.

I fell ya. I am 4 weeks out and feeling good. I am sore in the port area but I don't feel anything else. You will be so happy. The process is fast. Before you know it you will be in the recovery room and it will be over. I was scared too. I wrote out letters to people and that brought me comfort. I 'm tellin ya everything will be A-OK. This is exciting. Once you are home in your own bed everything just seems safer. Atleast for me it did. Good Luck, this is safe, think happy thoughts and ask for the good drugs.lol

      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? 🤷‍♀️
