Yep, join the club! We'll get there soon enough. It sucks though, I know. Mine is now March 8th. What is your new date?

Anyone scheduled for 1/27/22? ?

No, about doing the surgery. Im super anxious about having the surgery now.

Wondering how you are doing following surgery? I'm nervous of the pain and dehydration as well. I am only on day 4 of my 8 day pre op diet and I am extremely nauseous from the protein shakes. I just keep telling myself that I am going to feel so much better once I lose this 100 lbs that is putting so much pressure on my body and mind. I have been through hard things before. This is going to be a big commitment, but I am doing this for myself.

Prayerfully… 3 days and a wake up for my surgery. I am excited and starting to get a little nervous. I’ve been on this liquid diet for about 11 days and I’m not getting hungry anymore.

How’s everyone else doing?

That is wonderful!

Why are you being postponed? Covid?

Anyone else is over all this nausea and fatigue. Are y’all taking anything for the nausea?

I am super nauseated. Did you end up taking something?

I had my surgery on the 12th. The incision sites pain is tolerable, but my lungs hurts so bad. Especially when I try to breathe in. Don't know if it's the gas in my body or what but I was wondering if anybody else felt like this?

Hey! I had mine in the 11th. It hurt when I breathed in the day and morning after but as I keep using the spirometer it gets easier and easier and the breathing stops hurting. Definitely keep using it. Or just taking deep slow breaths. Probably if it keeps hurting, reach out to your surgeon. Wishing you a speedy recovery ♥️
