I Need To Leave This Forum Until I'm Post Op



Recommended Posts

I have become obsessed! I am on here multiple times every day. Though I've learned so much about the sleeve surgery, I am starting to freak myself out now. My surgery is scheduled for October 11th! I am confident that I am making the right decision for me. But I must admit this past week has been really stressful. I am such a control freak and the fear of the unknown is driving me crazy. All the positive experiences that people are having are very encouraging. However the horror stories aren't helping my nerves right now. Combine that with all that I have to do at work before I go out and I'm a mess. :-( I've prayed about it over and over and over again. I know I'll be just fine! I will be happy to report back to you guys when I'm on the other side. Thanks for everything sleeve fam!

What ever will make comfortable is what you must do. Keep this in mind:

GOD WILL NEVER TAKE YOU WHERE THE GRACE OF GOD WON'T PROTECT YOU. You will be in great hands. Let us know how doing and see you after surgery. ;):)

Oh my I feel the same way. I feel bad for Iggy and i hope you she comes through this. But at the same time I keep telling myself not to think negative. I still haven't had a date yet BUT GOOD LUCK!!!

If you have to.. Do it! I let it freak me out too haha i was crying my eyes out being wheeled into surgery (1 month ago next week!) and I had every scenario bouncing around in my head... I woke up and I was fine! There are definitely a few horror stories but most aren't! Be prepared, but in all honesty I wouldn't sweat it :) easy for me to say now, but I wish I wouldn't have been so upset before..

I have no clue about Iggy, I guess I will have to type in horror stories or something in the search box because everything I have seen has been so positive! I really like what cool breeze said about god wont take you anywhere that his grace wont or cant protect you, that was beautiful and i agree completely! Do what is best for you Ms. Neta and be sure to return to keep us all updated!!!!

      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! 😞
