Excited and scared

Best of luck to you both. You will do fine! Looking forward to seeing you on the losers bench! I was sleeved on July 10th and scared wasn’t even the word. I was terrified. All went really well. Make peace with your decisions and move forward with the plan. All will be fine. Best wishes for speedy recoveries and remember to walk walk walk!

Congrats to you both! My Bypass was very uneventful and a breeze so I wish that for you two as well! There may be a bit more discomfort due to band removal but you’ve got this. Gas day 1 was the worst but just get up and move ASAP and it makes its way through

Went from band to bypass 3 days ago and I was very nervous. I have not had a lot of pain so far, just some discomfort. Still a little weak and sore. My concern is that I gaine 3lbs. Maybe once my body settles down I’ll start to loose. This process was a lot easier than I thought, you got this.

My wife and I start our liquid pre-op diet tomorrow for surgery on 27th and 29th August. We both have the band but are doing the band to bypass. We are so excited and scared.

Last day of pre op diet. 9:30 Tomorrow morning is the big day . Nervous and scared . Its just now starting to feel real . liquid diet went well for the most part . Only cheated twice . And not that much food . I shocked as I'm not that hungry . And it goes fast if you keep busy .

Do a very glad and Good healing everyone. Mr Date with RnY Destiny comes September 5th and I need you all to say " Its okay Honey" when I come out of surgery bashed, slashed and having a WTF did I JUST DO? moment. I expect to be pale, have dark circles under,my eyes and look like something a desperate dog wouldn't want to drag home!
The good news? I 'll be back to my usual self, sassy but not SO FAT! Oh I do want my surgery, just stating how I'll look!😰💦😰

      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        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!!
