October sleevers?????

[Syrus 24]

I’m usually feeling outta breath and my heart rate gets a little fast so I thought that would e an issue but the Cardiologist cleared me for surgery and the Bariatric surgeon says he is confident in the cardiologist that cleared me and his decision to do so. Thanks for ur positive feedback 😊😌

We are out of breath from our weight. If a cardiologist cleared you for surgery you'll be fine. Always think positive. Everything is going to work out just perfect no worries.

1 hour before final pre op (passed all medical/ lost 50 during pre op ) the office called saying the psychologist just declared me ineligible for surgery with no explanation . WTF. Anyone else have this happen ?

Thank you Linda this is exactly what I needed. Even in my exercise group we have this saying which is “remember your why” when we feel like stopping. This is my journey now and has been, there is no stopping me. Thank you for your words and congratulations on your October surgery date also 😊.

So how you feeling about your upcoming surgery tomorrow? I had mine on Monday and I feel great. Hope you're feeling better about it since we last spoke. Good luck tomorrow 🙏🏻

@linda72 - you and I are surgery twins. Sounds like things are going really well for you. Yesterday was absolutely awful for me. I would get these waves of nausea and vomit, but there was nothing there. It was really bad, but I feel so much better today. Went our for two walks this afternoon and actually finished a Protein Shake today. Will focus more on Water tomorrow. A little worried that my bowels aren’t moving yet ... yours?

Protein and fluids are mostly absorbed or passed in the urine. Probably not enough cumulative solids or Fiber to make a poopy yet. Tell your doc if it goes on a few more days.

Hi Ali. Yes by the grace of God things have been going exceptionally well. The only issue I had was slight chest pain Monday night in the hospital but I would describe it more like uncomfortable then pain. I started walking in the hospital as soon as I got to my room and continued to do so until discharge yesterday @4:30 pm. My surgeon and his entire staff stressed to me the importance of moving around so that gas would be gone as quick as possible. I did get a little nausea yesterday morning in radiology when I had to drink that nasty stuff for the xray. Once I got back to my room and had some tea the nausea passed. I can only have Clear Liquids for the next 2 weeks. One day at a time. I'm glad you're feeling better I hope it continues.
