Gastric Sleeve Surgery in a couple hours



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I'm having a sleeve done in a couple hours. I need to be at the hospital by 6:30 am to have my sleeve. I'm super nervous. I have been reading all the stories on this app and it's not helping my nerves. I know what to expect but that doesn't mean it will be my reality because in actuality everybody is different. I'm just relying on God to make sure that everything from my surgery to recovery goes better than expected!

Hello I'm praying for you as I type this: Father in the name of Jesus touch this woman right now as she goes into the operating room. Calm every bit of her fears and let her know you are with her even right now. Go to the hospital where she is at and touch her body. Guide the doctors hands as he does the procedure. Give the Doctor the knowledge and ability to handle whatever may arise. But most importantly let this surgery be successful. Let her come out with minimal pain or discomfort. Give your Angels authority to watch over and protect her and everyone who is over her during this surgery, every nurse, aide, assistant and all medical personnel in JESUS NAME AMEN! Your nerves are normal ????

Sure! Father in the name of Jesus I come to you on behalf of Brigitte Romanelli. Lord I ask you to to calm every bit of her fears right now. Your word say you didn't give us a spirit of fear but of power, love and a strong mind! Lord I ask you to strengthen her for surgery. Touch her mind body and soul. Let her know you are with her even at this very hour. As she prepares for surgery Lord you lead and guide the surgeon so that every thing is done to perfection because you are a perfect God. Touch every one that is assigned to her. Let immeasurable favor be shown towards her. Touch her body before and after this surgery. Jesus do it in a way that Brigette knows it was nobody but you. Lord demonstrate your unfailing love for her. Remind her that you have ALL power in your hand. Lord give your Angeles the authority to watch over and protect her. I take the authority in the name of Jesus and bind any plan of attack from the enemy. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray Amen!

I finally had the surgery. I'm still in the hospital 2 days later but I feel awesome. I want to go home!!!! I'm tired of these nurses taking blood, checking my blood pressure etc. My room is like a conveyor belt or a revolving door. My appetite is non existent though. I can only get thru a couple sips of everything. I'm super gassy but, I understand that's normal so I'm not concerned about that. Thank you for praying for me, it definitely helped the process go smoothly. Now I can't wait for the weight loss to begin!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
