Newwwee ! Sergury March 7 [emoji847][emoji51][emoji18]



Recommended Posts

Welcome to the loser bench!! I was nervous too. No need to be. Trust your team. The excitement is the best part. I call my surgery date my Phoenix Day. It was the day, the old me was left on that surgical table and the new me was born. I have changed so much in a year. With 71 lbs gone, I can never imagine going back. I refuse. I love what I have accomplished. I done more in one year than I could ever imagine. It’s the best feeling and I cannot wait for when you feel that way!!!!

Good luck!!!

I’m from London, England and had the procedure 11 days ago. I’m a complete newbie and it’s early days but it honestly will be the best decision you will ever make in your life especially if your someone that’s struggled with your weight most of their life like me. Good luck!

Oh yeah have struggled nonstop. Lost weight few times but gained it back. Have several medical issues that make things a bit tough. But have managed to take off 48 lbs while prepping for the big day. Ready for a new me. I want to say at 54 that I’m in better shape than I was at 35-40. Hubby and I got some definite hiking trails to do this year. He had his surgery on Dec 4th and is doing amazing!!!! Very very proud of him.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
