June 25th Sleevers? I need a buddy...



Recommended Posts

I am up and down. If I really dwell on things, I get super nervous. I just can't wait until Tuesday is here. I have to be at the hospital at 5:45am and the surgery is at 7:30am.

Yes! Tuesday for me too! Excited is an understatement! Not really nervous although I pray all goes well for all of us. I get my time to report to the hospital on Monday!

I get my time to report to the hospital Monday too. I am already having weird dreams about work and surgery. Tomorrow will be my last day at work for two weeks and we are already behind so it is kind of stressful. I told my coworker bough that after Monday I CANNOT be thinking about work. I need to be thinking of my recovery. How long is everyone else taking off?

Just a week, but then I will work from home for two weeks.

My doc recommends 2-4 weeks off depending on what kind of job you have. I work from home, so I am taking 2 wks off. I had a laparoscopic hysterectomy last May and the hardest part for me was wearing regular pants because they rubbed my incisions wrong and then the actual driving into work everyday. This time, since I work from home, I won't have to worry about either one of those issues.

I'm a bit depressed. Haven't been on the scale for a week and I jumped on this morning to check how my pre-op diet was doing for me and I was 2 pounds up! Discouraging :(. I have been so good' date=' high Protein, low carb, plus my shakes, under 1000 cals a day, just as prescribed. Makes me wonder if I will be able to lose with surgery?!

On the other hand, it's hard to believe its almost here! Mine is early Tuesday morning. I keep thinking the hospital will call and say they have to delay, I need more clearances, etc.... I'm just being paranoid, I guess. Trying to keep up a positive face :). Good luck to everyone this week!

I am taking it easy for a week, then going in for two days for three or four hours just to make some calls and tie up loose ends. Then I'll go in part time for a few weeks. Trying to ease back into it.

I agree! I think I'm in denial that this time tomorrow it will be done! Running around today tying up all those loose ends. Laundry, shopping, etc. I'm sure I will not be able to sleep tonight, but I have to get up at 0330, so it doesn't matter lol

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
