This is such a tough place to be. From my research, less than 1% have complications. You have worked hard to get this far and the time is here.......Write down on a piece of paper the pro's and con's of having this procedure.....Everyone pretty much feels this right before surgery and many of us continue on and "JUST DO IT." My bariatric surgeon saids this is a safe proprcedure. So I wish you the best and hope to hear how your doing or if you decided to put it off..... :)

No, I'm not going to put it off. I'm all in now, just nervous with the "what ifs". Hopefully this time tomorrow I'll be up walking and getting acquainted with my smaller stomach!!! Wish me luck everybody and I wouldn't turn away a prayer either!!!!

I agree with Ms Skinniness! IF you have a problem with the what ifs...then just think about the what if I donts! :) You are doing something GREAT for you. Hang in there. I wish I was going in, but still have 2 months to wait. ugh.

You will do great!

Try and relax. I had my sleeve done on Monday and everything went fine. I had alot of pain but once I was given the pain medication, I was ok. I came home yesterday afternoon. THe pain is much better than when I was in the hospital. I havent had too much nausea. I almost have 35 grams of Protein in me and the day is still young. Just do what your doctor says to do and you should be fine. :)

      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! 😞
