My sleeve is scheduled August 12th. I was afraid the hospital was calling me to cancel, but it was scheduling my preop labs and COVID test. Feeling very nervous.

Oh God, I never thought of that, where are you, I’m in uk, so fingers crossed for all of us

Oh I pray not another lockdown, not looking like it here in London tbh, over here it’s mainly the teens and early 20 year old getting it, and they started giving the vaccine to the 16 year olds now

is it bad in Texas ?

I just want to get this op done and move on, popping all my Vitamins daily and purchased little pots to make Soup !!

I got 10 days low fat, all I want to do is eat sweets and I’m not a sweets person, ate a chewy sweet earlier and broke a tooth 🦷 so that will teach me, now a visit and expense of dentist !!

How are all the early August surgeries going!? I had mine aug it’s 4th and I’ve seen so many with similar dates. Hope everyone is doing well pre op and post op. I’m still in major pain 3 days after..one specific incision is hurting a lot, but I’ve finally starting taking in more Protein Shakes and some sherbet etc. lmk how you guys are doing !

august 2nd- I haven’t hit my Water intake yet since being home. I either hit my Protein or come very very close. Pain is ok… there’s a pulling in my stomach of course when I stand and do things. I have one incision that has been giving me heck since surgery (it’s the most painful and most tender but gets better by the day). It’s my largest one.
also does anyone experience a squeezing feeling? The squeezing is stronger in the middle of the night so I wake up and start sipping water.

Hi,

I am scheduled August 23, 2021 for gastric sleeve surgery.

I’m both scared and excited!

I had Lap Band surgery in 2009 and lost 80lbs. I felt great and I loved the way I looked.

A few months back I had the Lap Band removed and over the past several years I’ve put on 50lbs between not going to the gym during COVID-19 and the extra weight makes it difficult to get around.

However I was just reading the thread on what you are looking forward to most after your surgery and I must say I was very encouraged by what I read!

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      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!!
