Tomorrow's the big day for surgery



Recommended Posts

I think that everyone or at least most have the same anxiety before surgery. Try your best to relax. Have faith in your surgeon and know that a brand new life is getting ready to open up for you.

if you are still anxious when you get to the hospital let your dr know. They will give you something to help you relax.

This part will be behind you soon.

Hey Danny, I was assured in the support group I attended last night that what you are experiencing is absolutely normal. Let's talk about it if you want to, what's going on? I'm awake for another hour give or take.

What does your support system look like? Have you had surgery before? Are you afraid of anything in particular?

I just had my sleeve operation on Tuesday, so I know exactly how you are feeling. I had not been so scared of doing something in my entire life, especially voluntarily. I cam home early Wednesday morning, and while I am still sore and everything makes me nauseous, I still know deep down it was the right decision for me, and I bet deep down you know for yourself too!

You got this, you are NOT alone!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
