August 10, 2016 Surgery date

Hello out there. I am finally scheduled for my VSG, on August 10th. I am feeling a range of emotions from excitement to apprehension to fear. I cannot wait to start my new healthy life! I have no co-morbidities, I am just extremely overweight and want to around for my children for a very long time. My pre-op diet starts on the 27th of July. How are the rest of you feeling?????

How are you feeling after your surgery?

I had my surgery on 8/10 and that whole week leading up to the surgery I went through every emotion you can think of. Sadness, anxiety, fear, anger. I'm glad it's over and that I did but I know it's going to be a long hard road ahead. I just hope I can stay on course and not fail like a few people I know that had the surgery did. They acted like nothing was different and went back to their old habits and gained back the weight they lost and in one case more than what they lost.

I'm beginning to feel better, I can finally sleep on my side again???? I'm so over the full liquid stage though, nothing tastes good and artificial sweeteners are giving me headaches. How are you doing?

I've had all those feelings too. Today I had a breakdown. My husband bought pizza for him and the kids tonight and that's one of the things I've been craving the most.
