Surgery in 17 hours I'm so nervous

[AnaLiza 42]

So tomorrow morning at 5:45am I will be having my VSG and I'm so nervous I have so many feelings right now it's almost like I'm second guessing this. My mother and a good friend had a gastric bypass last year and are doing great but now it's my turn. When I started this journey back in March I was 252 pounds I hit my goal weight of 238 in May and last time I was weighed I was at 234, it's been a challenge. I have a very active 14 year old daughter that loves to workout and I can't keep up with her. Hope that I can once again be as active without pain as I used to. Wish me luck and any post op feedback is appreciated!!

Hi AnaLiza --

I had my VSG on 4/28 and had the same nervousness and second guessing the day before. I think we all do! But now I'm 5 weeks out and happy as a clam. This is easy and my surgery was a piece of cake. I hope you have the same experience! You'll be amazed a month from now how much better you feel. You can do this!

Hugs...

Good luck! I had mine today (6/6/16) at 7 this morning. Had a lot of pain when I woke up but now I'm just a little sore. I was very nervous and scared at first but now I'm so excited to start my new journey. I got up and walked as soon as I could with the help of a nurse or my mom and the pain would ease up so fast just from doing that, I did get lightheaded at first but when I started walking I could just feel myself getting better and the pain lightening up.
