Tomorrow is the BIG day, anyone else ?



Recommended Posts

Mine is at 11:30 too! I am looking forward to some anxiety medication. If they don't offer, I will ask. I just worry about being under anesthetic for 3.5 -4 hours. I have never been under that long.

Good luck this morning. You will be starting your new life at the very time I will be attending my 2nd nutrition class. I will say a prayer for you as I enter the class. I pray for your nerves to calm, your worries to be small, your pain to be minimum, and your healing to be be quick. Can't wait to follow your progress. I know you must be excited, you cross to other side today!!! Best of luck!!

I'm having a reaction similar to yours. Not taking anesthesia that well. I have pain and I cMt tell if it's hunger or gas or what.

Jealous and happy for those who were able to jump out of bed and walk. I wasn't one of those. I didn't walk on Tuesday at all. Wednesdayorning the physical therapist made me walk and I have done a few rounds since then.

Lots of "bubble gut" and diarrhea. Hurts to burp and cough but feel better after each small nap. I won't go home until Friday.

I don't know any of you except through these posts but I feel connected and hang on every word you send. ???? Please know that you are an inspiration to all of us waiting to go down the same path "willingly" I might add. I pray for you all and that the anxiety and pain will get better. Huggies and keep up the good fight. ❤️

The pain is def different for everyone. You really can't base your experience on mine or anyone else's because while suffering, a lady who had surgery the next day was walking faster than me in the halls and recovering much better. Just go in positive and know what you'll get better. This pain sucks for me but everyday is better. Baby steps.

Someone told me today I already look skinnier and that made me feel good. Just have faith and know that you're gonna make it out okay, even if it takes more time than others .

Good luck to all future surgeries !

It feels like I'm swapping symptoms. I have less pain, but now I can't get comfortable, I started going to the "bathroom" yesterday and have been 10 plus times since, not sure what the heck that is coming out, but I can't wait for it to stop... Are you experiencing that too? I feel weak most of time. I can't drink liquid Water and have crushed iced instead. Not sure when this is supposed to get better, but I really wish it would happen already. How are you ??

      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! 😞
