Surgery in less then 24 hours



Recommended Posts

Surgery is tomorrow at 7 am. I have been crying for hours and hours. I don't know if I'm scared or having second thoughts? Has anyone felt this way? Sitting in the lobby of my hotel debating to check in or dash back to my car :(

I don't know what to say.

I've yet to have my surgery, but I'm sure I'll have lots of conflicted feels leading up to it.

I only know that I'm doing it to help me get to where I want to be......and to help me stay there for the rest of my life. I think that if I keep that in mind things will remain more clear.

I hope that you are able to gain total clarity and get in touch with why you want to have the surgery and what you believe the benefits will be in your life.

The night before any type of surgery is nerve-racking.....I assure you.

i remember being antsy as hell the night before I had an ankle tendon repaired. I had an awesome surgeon and things were fairly textbook leading up to it. I was worked up for no reason whatsoever.

Surgery is not something we have every day......and can get us weirded out.

I felt the same way in the days leading up to my surgery. I was elated, yet terrified. I knew I was making the right decision and am so happy I went through with it. I will say a prayer for you. You can do it!

      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! 😞
