HELP! I'M SUPER NERVOUS



Recommended Posts

Thank you. I just can't help myself and I've been feeling really down about it. If so petrified that this surgery won't work out for me. What then? I've been trying to hold it together but honestly I don't know how to take it. Sorry for being such a downer

You are causing yourself undue stress which won't help your body heal and lose. I know you know the surgery isn't magical. Losing the weight is a partnership between us and the surgery. If we do our part, the surgery will help us as the tool it is meant to be. Relax, follow your doctor's plan and focus on this journey.

I am 8 weeks out and on my second stall which has now been 10 days. Do I want to get frustrated? Yes. Do i wish the stall was over? Yes. Do I truly believe that I won't lose weight ingesting as little food as I do? No. Our bodies are very fine tuned machines and are going to do what is best for them. We can only support that by doing the best we can and more.

We are all in this boat together. Don't stress yourself out. It won't help you.

I was just sleeved August 9th I'm almost 2 week post op the first week I lost 11 pds now I've slowly lost 2 pds but I believe it's completely normal to hit a platau. Keep your mind focused on the outcome! Your body is healing and also adjusting.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
