    I’m at the very beginning process of gastric bypass, I don’t have my surgery date yet. I’m nervous and excited at the same time for this journey. The video is very helpful! ❤

    This is a good list. Some things I bought ahead of time, like little spoons, a food scale, cute measuring cups that are only mine, and a new body scale, but there’s so much crap I didn’t think of that you definitely are on point with, like that reading pillow, the heated blanket, and the weighted heating pad.

    🎉❤🥳 Well Nicole when I say that you have been an angel sent from above today, I mean it from the bottom of my heart❣️❣️❣️
    I have considered weight loss surgery for a year or longer and today. I finally made up my mind. I’m going to do this. !!
    I searched several different UA-camrs and I come across this particular video . And then I subscribed, and I’ve watched a few more, and I will continue to watch the series.
    I can tell you that all the tips and the real deal and raw information that you are sharing from your own personal experience is so helpful and so many many ways!
    For some reason, people have had weight loss surgery and my circle do not want to share until the real deal.
    I had no idea where to start no idea what was expected etc. etc. although I know of many of my friends who have had the surgery.
    Most people say that they have been heavy all of their lives. I have not had that experience instead I have been in all of my life except over the last five years when I hit menopause and I’ve gained 80 to 100 pounds. Let me just say it is a super Duper experience.!!!!!
    I just wanted to say thank you and I want you to know that your passion, for this does not go unnoticed, even if it’s just lil ole me from NC. 😂
    I appreciate the time energy and effort that you put into these videos. They mean the world to me I haven’t even gotten an appointment yet. I’m calling tomorrow thank you again I’m so grateful for finding you❣️

    Hi there! Just a quick question for you if you don’t mind…I didn’t see what the little baskets were used for exactly, I must have missed that part. Can you explain please? I am considering this procedure so I’m doing as much research as possible! Thank you in advance!

    • @nicoleislosingit
      @nicoleislosingit  4 місяці тому

      I used the little baskets to hold essentials that I could have at my side and not have them get scattered everywhere. Things like chapstick, hand lotion, a nail file…

    • @nicoleislosingit
      @nicoleislosingit  2 місяці тому +3

      Well, I don’t know how to answer that. Without getting too personal, I haven’t had a love life to speak of in a very long time. I’m finally thinking of getting back into the dating arena, so I think an increase in confidence has improved things?

    • @aliciacosasdelavida679

    Did you have someone care for you during recovery?

    • @nicoleislosingit
      @nicoleislosingit  8 місяців тому +2

      Yes, my mom stayed with me for the first few nights I was home. I’m very grateful to her for that! I was able to do all of the self-care things myself like dressing myself, bathing, etc. But she definitely helped with housework and feeding the dogs. And emotional support.

      Just had mine and ended up right back in the hospital because of chest pain and vomiting. Now I can’t even drink my protein drinks because I’m barely tolerating water. I feel your pain. So sorry you’re struggling. I hope you feel better soon.
