I've been on this site for 6 months now, just taking it all in..I've completed all of my requirements and tests. I've been approved by my insurance and I 'think' I'm all ready.. So my procedure is October 27.. In 5 days. I'm nervous, but ready. Are there any tips or anything you guys wish you had known PRIOR to having the surgery? Any advice would be appreciated! Updated on 30 Oct 2015: Had my surgery Tuesday. Today is Friday. Still in pain, but I feel much better than the day of! I'm back home but I'm having trouble keeping anything down. I take a small sip and it comes right back up. I've been trying to get my liquids in but I can only manage a few sips a day..hope this gets better.. Updated on 31 Oct 2015: My 'HW' (heaviest weight) when I began this journey 6 months ago: 276 My 'SW' (surgery weight) Oct. 27, 2015, the morning of surgery: 254 My 'CW' (current weight) Oct. 31, 2015, as of this morning: 244 Still trying to get my liquids in and I've yet to even get to a protein shake, but the sugar free Popsicles and jello cups are my best friends. The broth was beginning to make me gag at the thought of them until I put a slice of onion in it for a slight change in flavor! Worked like a charm! I still don't have an appetite for the most part..I'm actually not hungry at all, really. The pain has pretty much gone away, I even slept on my stomach last night..accidentally, out of habit I guess lol...I'm hoping I made the right decision in having done this..there's no turning back now though lol..stay tuned, folks..I'm sure it only gets better from here!
