Tomorrow Is The The Big Day

  • Popular Post

Well, it has finally arrived...surgery in t minus 15 hours I will walk into the hospital to take control of my life. That's right "MY Life"...I am determined to reclaim what is mine!!!

In all honesty - a little jitters and nerves but otherwise ready to get the show on the road. I can not thank everyone on this site enough for all of the honesty, information, encouragement, etc. I have made a few new friends as well to go through this journey with.

When I wake up tomorrow afternoon (fully wake up :) ) I will be sitting on the official losers bench. As exciting that is, that will just be the beginning of my journey to a healthier me. Another month of liquids to mushies to testing out new flavors and tastes.

So here is a big hug for everyone having surgery tomorrow and best wishes for a safe and speedy recovery. Looking forward to moving on with "MY Life"

  • Don't be nervous. I was sleeved two weeks ago and I have lost 18 pounds. The surgery is not bad at all. If you get nauseated after surgery ask the nurse to bring you some alcohol wipes and fan them

  • I am scheduled for tomorrow as well. I'm so happy to finally have the opportunity to transform my life. I wish you the best of luck!!!! Cheers to a healthier, happier, sexier, chicer NEW US!!! Goo

Yay! Great to hear you all are doing well! Keep us posted!

Surgery went well, I was out of it all day the first day but I've been getting better, went home yesterday and have been trying to take it easy. That's a little tough with my little ones. Tolerating clear liquids just fine, even tried a little protein shake which I held down just fine.

Hope everyone is doing well :)
