Doesn't feel real



Recommended Posts

I scheduled for surgery on January 31st but it doesn't feel real I just have a feeling that something will come up and it won't happen , I'm not nervous or worried about the surgery I just get waiting for something to happen to stop it . I'm still doing great with my liquid diet and getting everything ready. And trying to stay positive but I just have that feeling

Stay positive. I know the feeling, can't believe that I received the approved phone call Wednesday and another call today saying that I'm scheduled for Feb 8th!!

It's totally normal to feel that way. I felt that way all the way to the operating room. I had surgery Wed. Everything went fine, I was home on Thursday and haven't had any pain since the night of my surgery.

That's how I feel but we have to stay positive. We defeat ourselves with our thoughts... Negative in Negative out! I think my problem is the fact that being overweight is all I know. Now this will change everything we need to embrace the change we're making. This is a New Beginning for all of us you'll be fine.

The count down to surgery is exciting, but stressful. You will do great!!! I would try to think of all that was done to bring me to that point - so much has gone right so far to get you to a surgery date!!!!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
