wow that isnt much

how many slim fast per day?

when is your surg?

I have a 7 day preop that consists of two things: Slim Fast and Crystal Light. I am on day 3 and doing well so far, but the first two days were really, really hard. Everyone I talked to said that the first 4 days would be the hardest thing I have to do - it only gets easier from here on out. That remains to be seen, but it got me through the first 2 days so I'll keep thinking that :)

Good luck to you! When is your surgery?

biiiiiiiiig sigh

i feel your pain

and fear

and excitement

Well my Pre-op diet starts tomorrow and consists of MediFast brand foods. shakes, Soups, and not much else. Very low cal and unsatisfying. I am going to be on the for 2 weeks and surgery is scheduled for the 28th! I am so excited but really scared at the same time. It is such a life change that I am freaking out a little but I am so excited to get healthy and be comfortable in my own skin.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
