Good job on the weight loss!!!

And so funny that you were traumatized!!! I would have too!! :)

I actually weighed myself FOR FUN today....what was I thinking?!?!?!?! Anyway, our school nurse has a scale so I went to her office and hopped on that darn thing....and it said a LOWER # than I was expecting!!! Woo hoo!!! I've lost 10 pounds since April!!!!! I had to check the scale 5 times to make sure I wasn't misreading it!!

Starting liquid diet next week.....not looking forward to that!!!

Keep up the good work on the weight loss and keep me posted!!!

I posted in the other June thread, but I'm getting banded on the 8th at 10:30 in the morning. I'm really looking forward to it. I've had my bout of nerves, but I'm excited now. I really feel like I'm turning a new page!!

June 8th for me~~~~~~ Hope you are doing well

Just got approval!! June 29th surgery date for me! :) YAY! biggrin.gif This has been in the works for years, so I'm SUPER EXCITED for it to finally be reality! And scared also!

No pre-op diet for me. I just had to lose a percentage of my total weight (5% I think) to be ready for surgery. I think I'm there already but I will just keep eating well and get as low as I can before my date.

Best wishes to all of you!!!

I feel your pain! I'm a week into my pre-op diet and it seems to be easier during the when I'm at work. The weekends seem to be my problem. Today was bad. I could have eaten anything i could find! I thought about gnawing my arm off but thought I might need it later :P. I would just drink more Water or eat some cantaloupe and remember why I'm doing this.

Good Luck!

i had my band placed june 3rd, it wasn't bad, but i didn't have to do a pre op diet and now i wish i did, because i am starving, feels like i never had anything put on my stomach, i want to eat so badly, and i feel like i could, but i don't because i don't want to screw this up, anyone else have anything like this

      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. 🤞
