TOMORROW IS THE BIG DAY!



Recommended Posts

So tomorrow is surgery day and the start of my new beginning. I am so so so nervous but I know that it is going to be so worth it in the end. I am happy to be doing this not only for myself and my health but for my child. Idk I am scared, nervous, anxious, excited, happy, just so many emotions mixed in one. Goodluck to anyone whose date is tomorrow also. I wish you the best!

Good luck! Walk the halls as much as you're able, it will help you start getting rid of the gas and feeling a lot better.

Congratulations. I'm so excited for you and a little envious. Lol

I hope you continue to post about your journey. I'm hoping to have my sleeve done first part of December. Hope your recovery is a smooth one. Best wishes for you.

My surgery goal weight is 227. My scale reads 224.2. I had to track my food and exercise. Have done that since Sept 1.

Thursday 11/4 I have a phone call consult with the NUT. She needs to clear me for surgery. Fingers crossed.

I have a phone consult with psychologist on 11/17. She asked me to attend a Mindful Eating class for 5 weeks and no change to my depression or anxiety meds. My last class is the 16th. No change in meds.

So I'm really hoping to be cleared for surgery on the 17th.

My surgeon said surgery is usually 1-2 weeks after clearance.

If all goes according to plan (knock on wood) I should have surgery around 12/1.

Which is not really all that much time from starting to surgery. 3 months.

Hope you are doing well.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
