:rolleyes:It's been a long journey, I'm so excited and scared at the same time. I have been going through the testing and waiting process for almost a year and half. The staff at the Beverly Hill Weight Loss Center are the best.

Hi! My surgery is scheduled for April 12. I am currently on my 2 weeks of liquids....protein drinks, clear broth, sf popsicles, crystal light and of course Water. Lots of water. This is my 4th day on liquids and today has been a little difficult but I know I need to do this and I will.

Good Luck to you!!

I am slated to go4/11/11 (unless I get a nasty surprise on my insurance approval) My doc only makes me do liquids for 3 days before but I am going to start on Monday voluntarily so my liver shrinks down and my system is ready for the 3 weeksof liquids after. i am so excited and ready to do this. I am just scared that my insurance will deny me. I dont think they will but I know it is a possibility. Will keep you posted. Keep fingers crossed for me and good luck to all of you as well.;)

      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.
