Best wishes for JadaB today!! Enjoy your journey. I can not wait until the 17th to get here. The thought of it almost consumes me. I had to get out last night, so I went to Puss n' Boots with my family. I smuggled Snacks in for all of them, and for myself I smuggled in a light Protein Shake.< /p>

I'm kinda freaking out! My surgery is tomorrow! I live 100 miles away from my surgeon, so me and my family are driving up tonight and staying in a hotel. I am on Clear Liquids, so I am having a Jello at the moment lol. I'm so thankful for this site, cause I am taking the advice.... like to bring a pillow for the ride home. It is gonna suck! I might even just wear my nightgown home from the hospital lol.

Thanks for the good words myluv2drive. The belly bloating feeling is the worst out of this from the gas the incision pain is soreness but the meds make the pain ok. Been walking around the house as much as i can which is actually a lot.

I know there's a special section for this, but it doesn't seem to be too popular so I'll give it a whirl here..

Anyone here to be banded in February besides me?

My surgery date is February 15th.

Feel free to add me on Facebook for support, etc. =]

      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.
