Well tomorrow’s the big day. After a four week pre-op I have to be at the hospital at 9:00 & surgery at 10:30. A little nervous but ready!

You will ace it! I was an anxious wreck and they gave me a huge fast acting shot of midazolam that calmed me right down. Just let them know you’re nervous, they’ll take care of you. I’m out the other side and can assure you it’ll be just fine! Good luck :)!

Thanks so much! This is my second attempt my nerves got the best of me on May 30, 2017. I was already in the hospital with an IV in my arm and ended up going home.

And that’s okay - maybe at that time of your life you weren’t ready. Just remember all the reasons why you’ve opted to do the surgery and everything you stand to gain by doing it. You’ve got this! [emoji1377]

Thanks so much. I’m in my room now. I feel great except for right below the middle of my rib cage. Should be walking in an hour or two.

4 days post op and feeling pretty good. Is it normal to still have pain in largest incension on the left side of my belly. I have followed my doctors orders and stayed on meds that were prescribed. I am not sure if meds will last until my pain stops. Anyone else experienced this? Thank You.

It'''s fairly normal only 4 days out. I had sporadic incision pain for weeks, though after the first week didn't need pain killers. If you need more talk to the DR, though in many cases you go from regular use to not needing them almost overnight so you might be ok.

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
