38, Low Bmi, Married W/4 Kids Excited and Nervous! Gastric Sleeve Single Incision - Let's Do This!

Looking to take back control of my weight. Hoping to use the Gastric sleeve to make it happen. As a mother of four my own desire have been on the back burner. Now I'm putting me first! Even though I have a low bmi my weight has been on the climb and I want to do this before I've wasted time enjoying life. I love adventure and don't want my weight to get in the way of that.

2 days till surgery.... I am very nervous and my hubby too. Heading to Mexico alone for surgery. If you'd told me a few years ago that I would be doing this I wouldn't have believed you. Hubby and I decided that it would be easier on our kids for him to stay home and since I don't want to tell anyone else I'm flying solo, not literally, I'm driving in. I feel confident in all the reviews I have read that it will be okay. Let me know if anyone has any advice for packing for the trip, drinks for after etc. Anything you wish you would have know prior?

I was so scared I wouldn't wake up from surgery but here I am. I woke up feeling really good. The next day wasn't great because I could keep anything down. Tiny sips of water would come right back up. I tried not to worry too much since I had an iv and knew I was getting fluids. Today day 3 I'm able to drink small sips. Took a shower and feel so much better. Heading to the Marriott hotel later today.
