welcome to the group Sami2211

sounds like you are having surgery in 2 days, is that correct? if this is the case - your feelings are normal and understandable - everyone gets nervous before surgery -

take a bunch of deep breathes

don't know if you've ever had surgery before - people are usually most concerned about the anesthesia - its easy to say things will be fine - but i truly believe they will be

sounds like you are pre-op, so try not to be nervous, easier said than done - and when you come home - drink all that Water - you don't want to get dehydrated, rest - but walk too

i hope you have a nutritionist who can help you with what to eat, especially this early in the game

look ahead at the wonderful journey you are starting with the sleeve - your health and happiness will improve

glad you found this board

take care,

write back with more details and more questions - someone is usually here with information to help you

good luck

Sami, it's normal to be worried. The percentage of complications is so small. The percentage of complications due to obesity are great. I for one actually freak out in the pre-op suite, right before they wheel me in. My heart races i become nauseous ans sweaty. I have learned to ask for a valium from the anesthesiologist to keep from running away.

I am also pre-op my date is 9/19/2012. I am not nervous because I know all will be ok. I am more afraid of the obesity and it's complications if I don't have the sleeve done. I have prayed, and prayed some more and I am cool calm and collected and at peace with my decision. Good luck to you.

New me, new you... blessings

I am currently 10 days post op. My best advice would be to just WALK as much as possible and stay hydrated. That helped me so much. I feel like I have had a fairly quick recovery. Now I am just trying to get used to my new stomach. I am assuming that today is your surgery date as this was posted 2 days. Best of luck to you :) See you on the flip side.

Sami, it will get better.

The first days are hard but walking helps the pain in your chest.

Take some pain medicine and try to walk with someone helping you.

Congratulations.

You will feel better in about 3 to 4 days!

      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.

      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! 😞
