My Surgery is in the morning! Omg!????????

So my surgery is in the morning and I am scared but excited but scared! My 2nd birthday has arrived and I'm a roller coaster of emotions. Please everyone say a prayer for me and our fellow WLS friends that everything will go great and we have a fast smooth recovery! Thank you to everyone here on this site! You all have given me great advice and encouragement during this journey! I wish everyone the best and look forward to chatting with you all once I'm in recovery! ????

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers! My surgery went great and I've been nip all day today and have a barium test tomorrow to check for leaks. I'm super sore and my chest hurts from all the remaining air in it. But it's manageable. Best wishes to everyone out there who had surgery today and will have surgery in the future! I'll keep you guys posted on my progress! It help so much to know what to expect.

Great to hear you came through safely. Get some rest!

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers! My surgery went great. i have a barium test to check for leaks. So, I still can't take fluids till after the test. I'm sore and my chest hurts from all the remaining air in it. But it's manageable. The walking is helping so much. Best wishes to everyone out there who will have surgery in the future! I'll keep you guys posted on my progress! It help so much to know what to expect.

Great news.

I know you'll do really well. Hope the walking really helps make things more comfortable soon.

The pain you are in now I'm sure doesn't even compare to the aches and pains prior surgery. This has got to be a good pain. You will feel better soon and it's so worth it. I cannot wait to be in your shoes!????. Please keep us posted on your progress❤️
