Anyone Else Nesting Before Surgery?



Recommended Posts

I have seriously been nesting here. I've scrubbed my house from top to bottom; cleaned out every room, including the garage; and, even done 3 dump runs. I'm just about to go through all the cabinets in the kitchen to rearrange and organize them, donating old items that we never use. I feel like I'm totally nesting here and I think I may be driving my husband insane. I cannot relax to save my life these days before surgery. I'm so anxious for this surgery and I still am having nightmares that they're going to tell me I can't have the surgery. Anyone else going through this?

YES!! I'm doing the the exact same thing. There are so many things I keep thinking I should get done. At least it's burning calories ;)

I call it cleaning house and keeping busy which takes my mind off food, even now. Good luck.

I did that! I bought all my daughter's back to school supplies and clothes, too. The best thing is, I came home from surgery to a sparkly clean house!

I did the same thing the two days before surgery! I cleaned the house from top to bottom and stocked up on all the post-surgery supplies I had jotted down. I liked the idea of coming home to my new life with a clean house.

I did the same thing! My surgery is tomorrow and my house us sparkling!

I love cleaning so it made it easy.

I cleared the walkways too, just to make it simple getting to and from the bathroom/kitchen.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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?

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
