I feel for you with that! But is that the only downside so far? I have my Pre-Op today 
….. and been given surgery date as 17th Jan …. It’s been a long time coming! Just hoping that Covid doesn’t put a spanner in the works for me …… Again!!

how was your surgery? Hope your recovering well. Pre and post op tips you and Hpa19 can give me would be much appreciated. I’m so nervous and anxious waiting for my date. I’m happy for both of you, so close to your goals

Thank you
I’m so excited, can’t wait for my turn. How long did it take you to recover from surgery, ie pain, driving, going back to work etc. I also have paso and havnt had a period in years. I saw on your post that’s your has come back post surgery is that normal?Well I sometimes forget that I've had the surgery now 
that's how much it doesn't affect me and I've got used to the restriction some days restriction is tighter than other days. Also had my second period finished a couple of days ago. Not sure if ots normal or not but mine seem the be lasting 11 or so days but I dont have post op appointment untill 14yh Feb... when is your surgery? Pain wise i would say after 2or3 weeks I didn't take any pains meds. The most painful was standing up straight and getting in and put of bed i would say. And as for driving I think I drove at 10days po xxxx

It’s just the beginning of the journey for both us! We can do it xx

Congratulations 
to you, you sound as though your doing really well and fab weight loss . I have my gastric bypass surgery on 3 rd Feb, at UCLh , I'm soo nervous, but trying to remain calm. I'm looking forward to my new me , however just anxious about it all and what to expect. I've read so much, probably too much ! I will keep you posted how it goes next week, huge congratulations to you.

Just a quick question, does the nausea go away after the surgery, or is this something that stay with the you forever !!? Just something that's been niggling me and I'm thinking about , it's crazy what's going on in my head !!! Excited and fearful!

I haven’t really got any pain at all . Only time I feel anything at all is when I try and get comfortable at night. If you try and sleep on your side you feel discomfort…. Not really pain …. But makes it that you can’t sleep on your side…. Which for me is an utter pain! I have no nausea at all. When in hospital I did once think that I was going to be sick, but it passed and hasn’t returned! I think everyone is different. Try not to think about the problems that might happen …. Be positive and embrace what can be!! Let the positive thoughts flow xx
