Hey! My sx date is Feb.8th & my feelings are all over the place! How are you feeling?

Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App

Scared!! And so confused. So much information.. I haven't even started buying anything as far as shakes.
Me too! First I was so looking into Premier Protein shake.. But they strongly recommend powder. Therefore, I'm going for Isopure. But I'm scared too. I have kids ????

Yeah! I went out and bought Dutch chocolate Isopure & some Premier Protein bottles. Are they not good???

And I have kids also!

I was sleeved 10/21/16 after having my date changed twice! Each time I was getting close I was anxious. I tried talking myself out of it. I have an anxiety disorder which just made it worse. But I got it done it wasn't so bad. The surgeon even told me before I went back that I could get off the bed and walk out if I still wanted lol. I only stayed one night in the hospital which just made it better.

I have my date! It's approved!! I'm so scared. And pretty much alone in this. I wish I had someone to just... to chat with. I have no one to count on.. I'm on my own for this journey.

Anyway.. if anyone wants to just chat! I'm 25, Female, weigh 320lbs.

Don't let anyone take away your excitement, especially your family. My mother won't support me or go to the hospital when inhale this surgery so I avoid talking to her about it. I'm doing this because it's the right thing for me and no one else's opinion matters. Good luck you'll do wonderful

I was really nervous for my surgery and tried talking myself out of it every time my date came up. (They rescheduled me 2 times) the surgeon even told before they took me back that it was my last chance to get off my bed and walk out of the hospital. But I made myself stay because I knew I needed the surgery. I am not too worried about excess skin, I am going to tighten as much as I can. But I know I am going to have some due to the weight and a pregnancy.

My highest weight is 583 and my current weight is 4 90 so I know there will be a lot of skin to be removed

I think if you can get through the weight loss surgery you can get through the skin removal! You will do great.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

        LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
