So nervous I feel nauseous! LOL



Recommended Posts

My surgery is in about 9 hrs! I am so nauseous and light headed I am not sure if it’s that I am nervous or just hungry from being on liquids lol. I wasn’t not one bit nervous until today. I can’t sleep! Ahhh! But at the same time I am excited to begin this new journey . Anyone else having surgery 10/25?

I'm like 18 days post op... keep grinding from the time u wake up out of anaesthesia till u get too your goal. Good luck you'll be fine. Stay strong the 1st week is the hardest then it's uphill from there..

Hi-

I understand your nerves! When I think about what a major change this is going to be I get nervous too. Try to sleep- everything will be fine this time tomorrow!! Your surgeon is a pro. Smooth sailing. Take care! Good luck- sending good vibes.

I'm the same! I'm 9 hours until my surgery. I'm feeling excited, scared, but mostly worried about the pain. I'm also getting my hiatus hernia repaired. I'm only in hospital for 1 night so the fridge is stocked with Soups, broths, yougurt etc. Ready to start the new chapter. Good luck with yours.

Thank you! That’s exactly what I did... even though I had a lot of issues with the anesthesia I still sucked it up and got my butt walking as soon as I got out of recovery helped so much with the gas pain.

Thank you! I am feeling pretty good right now. At first I struggled a bit I was so tired but I couldn’t sleep and it was frustrating because I felt restless but I am doing so much better now [emoji3]. Good luck with your surgery you will do just fine trust me I was nervous for no reason everything happens so fast.

Well it's now over and done with. I was done at 9.30am on the 26th. All day I battled though the gas pain, which after many hours they controlled it down to a 4 out of 10. Couldn't keep my eyes open to walk until though the night and then I felt dizzy. Home day 2 on pain relief. Trying to get comfortable was hard but I got more sleep than the night before. I know that this next week will be the hardest but it will be all worth it. Keeping my mind on the goal ahead which is a healthier body that I can love.

Just had my first few teaspoons of custard. Went down smoothly and tasted good. Full after 4 tablespoons! My surgeon says eat anything liquid that you can get though a straw that is really runny, e.g. Custard, broth, runny yogurts, the higher in Protein like Dairy is the better.

So glad it all worked out. Nervous as heck too. Surgery is Nov 1!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
