Nervous beyond explanation



Recommended Posts

So I had my last pre op appointment today! Super nervous! People in the waiting room talking about their experiences so far. Negativity and non compliance should be put in a bubble in waiting rooms! I'm more nervous now than before. Pre op diet starts 9/27 and surgery 10/4. I haven't shared my plans with friends or family. Support is low. But I'm doing it for me. I'm pretty motivated and when I put my mind to something I do it. So I'm ignoring the surrounding nonsense. But wish I had more support.

You've got it here. Good luck!

Different people have different experiences. I had almost no pain and no trouble getting things down. Sick to death of Protein Shakes at this point--and sweet things generally. Real food at the end of the week; can't wait. But have lost weight and it's still coming off and I'm not hungry at all.

The first couple of weeks post-op aren't much fun, but believe everyone who says it does get better.

I agree with XYZ, I have had a complication free surgery and recovery. Just a week when I felt absolutely no hunger and was getting weak from not eating enough. The toughest part for was preop especially the first 5 days. I have had no pain, no vomiting and losing at a steady pace. Talk to your doctor about your fears. Don't listen to negative voices.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
