Big Day Tomorrow!

Hello! Just wanted to introduce myself. After starting this process back in November 2016, my surgery is now here. I have my surgery tomorrow and I am excited and anxious all at once. Hoping I can connect with people near me. I am in Cumming, GA and my surgeon is Christopher Hart at Atlanta Bariatric.

Good luck to you

I had mine on May 22 and I'm feeling pretty darn good. I am sore but no pain. Like I did crunches. The second night was rough but still manageable. I had some nausea and did throw up. Honestly I expected much worse. You'll be so thrilled when you have this behind you! Best wishes and let us know how you did!

And for the most part all the gas is gone. @joann454 it does feel like I did a bunch of crunches. But I can live with this soreness. Only concern right now is that I am peeing ALOT. It started about every hour and now it's about every 2 hour.

Yeah, gotta love IV fluids! So glad it's behind you. It's just the biggest relief to be on the other side after all the build up. Congratulations on a smooth (ish) surgery. Now to heal!


Congrats hon! The next chapter of life has started for you. Enjoy!!!
