Less than a week and totally Stressed



Recommended Posts

Morning all I am having a horrible week had my surgery date set and Dr consult and then a week before surgery I have to get chest x-ray , stress test ,more blood work and cardiac clearance , why wait till the last min????:angry: I was on the way to one appt. and another nurse calls me and lets me know that I should have been on the way to another place at the same time :blink: I know I am a big person but still I am only one I took it out on the caller :( . Seems once your approved they wanna push you like crazy. Well I told her off told her I still have a life kids fiancee work ! I know you have alot of patients but the only one I care about is me ! :rolleyes: Maybe I am changing cuz I never would have said that befor but damnit I was mad and hungry :lol: . Sometimes it seems there are just to many hoops to jump through and they want these results yesterday ! Well they got my approval and pushed me to set a date they should have made sure all my shit was done and ready to go before not last minute . Thanks for listening

Ah... yes, I was stressed like that before surgery too but my Hospital was a little more on the ball.... I just had to sit and wait for the day but my family paid the price! Think my niece is still mad at me!

You'll do great! Relax and think of all the great things to come!

Good Luck

I know I just let them get the best of me I guess . :unsure: Will be going to LA on tuesday for all the rest of my stuff . Then back again on Thursday for the surgery . I'm lil nervous hahaha shoot alot nervous didn't think it would come but as each day does draws closed im closer and closer to my new me :bananajump: being able to do this soon without thinking is someone seeing my belly jiggle . I literally hate being seen trying to exercise because of my size . I hate doing so many things . Its going to be like a birthday everyday with new things happening daily for me and my family . May not all be good but then again not all bad :D !

      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.
