I just got my surgery date and I want to make some August surgery friends so we can share our ups and downs in the weight loss journey.

Don't put on a swim suit yet, they will see gaps where you lost,your
" Wolf--fur" You'll heal --then only YOU will know.

How does the gas pain for this compare to gas pain after gallbladder removal?

Don't really know yet( ( will in Just 1 Month!) But my,gall bladder was "open". Nausea,dizziness when I first stood up, but no ⛽ so this will be a Brand New World!?

My gallbladder was laparoscopic, as was my hysterectomy. I'm hoping this surgery will be also.

Surgery on Tuesday - ready or not....sort of concerned that I didn't lose much of anything during preop phase (maybe a pound) you but haven't ate barely any carbs - hopefully the liver shrunk like it needed to. This is a revision band to sleeve and I have a really slow motility due to victoza nut sure if this played into it but makes me nervous that o won't lose post op....would hate to go through all of this and still not lose weight or get healthier.

Mine is Tuesday too, if I don’t chicken out. I wish you the best during yours.

@_shane_ I’m also the 13th!

Vitamins, Gatorade zero and all my post op preparation came in today... getting so real! 3 more sleeps and then I head to the hospital!

Hi guys. My surgery is the 24th. I’m getting a sleeve. I did my barium last week and it was disgusting. Blek!!!

I had my RNY on Friday. Guess o wasn’t prepared for the gas pain. It was sooo bad. I’ve been told that my heart beat is slow. They checked it several times and couldn’t see anything wrong. I’m about to go home and I can’t wait to get in my bed. Thanks guys for checking on me. I really appreciate it!

Hey surgery buddy! I wasn’t prepared for this either....it’s much harder than I thought. I just keep telling myself that each day will get better. They sent me home fairly quickly and I spent the first 48 hours vomiting anything I tried to put in my mouth including water. Today is the first day where I’ve been able to have 1/3 of a yogurt cup and a few spoons of cream of chicken soup. Pretty sure I’m not going according to plan as far as protein and water but I see the doctor on Wednesday. Good luck!

Same here. I had mine on 8/2 and the first 2 days were extremely rough. I had way more pain than I expected and felt like crap. Yesterday was much better and today has been pretty good alao. Worried about how I'm going to get all the fluid and protein.
