October Surgery Date

  • Popular Post

Hi everyone!

Just came back from doctor's office and have a October 28th surgery date for Gastric Bypass. This is it, the high diving platform. Knees are trembling.

Anyone else in October? Let's keep in touch as we support each other. We have the pre-op diet and getting mentally ready for this.

LET'S DO IT!

Good luck today Beni. You have been waiting for this day for so long. It seemed so far away in the beginning of October and now is here and has come by faster than expected. Can't wait to hear from you and the other Gladiators later today!

Good luck beni and everyone else having sugery today.

I figure for the rest of October I may be a little indisposed and won't be able to keep up my send off routine. To those of you going these last days of October go get them gladiators.

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Good luck to you all.

See you all at the "OCTOBER 2014" thread on the Post-Surgery section of the Gastric Bypass Forum.

Hi! Thank you for rooting. I had my surgery yesterday and I feel quiet well :)

I have already had a big walk and I am sipping the Water. Of course, I have a

little pain but not that bad. So thanks for your support! :) Now the real hard part

is coming... feeling excited and a little bit scared of failiure

I feel you there. Day 11 of a stall, I assume. I haven't weighed myself because I'll get depressed. I'm not going to weigh in until Thursday which will make 2 weeks if a stall if I don't lose.

@@Buffer I can imagine how pissed off you feel about " no weight loss" I was told that once you. An get both your Water & Protein in the weight lost will catch up. Last week I could barely get a 1/2 bottle of my Protein shake in and 20 ounces of water but I noticed I lost inches. Yesterday I got 48 oz's of water & 2 shakes in. And I got into a smaller size pant an 18 today.

It's gonna happen & for you the loss will probably be BIG. Hang in there!

Keep in mi

@@Beni good luck this is day one of your new life!

There will be NO failure! I've got that same thought in the back if my mind, hard to get rid of as I'm a band to bypass convert. However, MAJOR difference: we all have so much love, support, prayer and good listening skills for each other! That alone will make a difference and we will all lose and maintain together! (I used way too many exclamation points)

I check in the hospital at 7am tomorrow.. now im officially nervous. I never thought I'd make it this far..

I know until you wake up in recovery you still don't feel like you've actually done anything. It's almost dreamlike.

Just started my prep. Fun fun! I have to be at the hospital at 11am tomorrow and surgery is at 1pm. Very nervous, scared, excited. I have been crying off and on for 3 days.

You'll be fine.
