today i had my psych visit that went well and i was approved...

i dont have my surgery date as of yet but the nurse told me it may be in Feb. i dont know why they make you do 6 months of diet documentation.....i can see at least 3 to 4 but anyway....

i just want to know does everyone have to go on a liquid diet or is it if you weigh a certain amount?

i have read so many horror stories of people who have had to do liquid diets and they are freaking out really bad... which is understandable if you are denying your body of food for 2 weeks and you have food right in your kitchen that you can eat... .its not like you are on the reality show survivor or something! lol

but anyway... what am i to expect during the first month? i know that the sleeve or the lap band works different for everyone... i thought abou the sleeve because there was no way i was doing gastric bypass..... but the sleeve is a mini version of the bypass i think more so

i just dont want to be disappointed if the band does not do what i have hearing about.... i was on youtube and you should all look up this girls journey ...her name is called skymoon and it is AMAZING.. i was soo happy for her! her doctor is from new york... she lost like 120 pounds in like 5 to 7 months! i also thought about getting the band and if it doesnt work out for me after about at least a year and a half that i would get the sleeve.... and id have different insurance and then they could pay for that surgery as well! LOL

  Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

    Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
