Tomorrow is the Day



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow is the big day. Of course I picked a surgery date that involves winter weather, which in the South is disastrous. But luckily it will not start until after I am in the hospital and thru with Surgery. Its been almost a year process to get here due to what my insurance required and some work issues that had to be handled before I felt ready and could concentrate me. My physicians office "plan" has over prepared me for almost everything. Its so comprehensive and I feel sorry for some bariatric patients that I come into contact with. I'l like "they didn't tell you about that". I work in health care and are notoriously bad patients, but the nerves have passed and I'm ready for the next chapter in my life, I plan on waking up from the surgery already on the path to the new me.

Mine is tomorrow too! I'm all nerves. Never had a surgery before of any kind, not even wisdom teeth. I'd say I have butterflies, but i've been on liquids for two weeks so I can attest there's nothing in my tummy at all LOL. We will both be on our way to being healthy soon... life is good :) My mom had an RNY last monday, and she is doing fabulously. She's been walking and enjoying her time off since day 3. The only crying she's done is tears of joy!

Best of luck to you! Keep us posted how it goes when you can :)

Surgery went well MD said it could not have went much better. Got home around 4 yesterday afternoon. Was really sleepy yesterday, but today I've been able to stay awake. Got all my Protein in and even walked on the treadmill for awhile. Glad to hear you have done well also.

      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! 😞
