Preop Appointment With Mchottie



Recommended Posts

Just finished my preop appointment and was completely happy with the amount of information provided and can rest assure now that everything is going to be okay. From the nurse, dietician and my McHottie of a doctor, I am going to be just fine. So since last Monday, I have officially lost 9 pounds and was able to have a piece of bread today with a penny size of honey almond cream cheese and will have a piece of meat tonight. By no means am I going to revert back to what got me here. McHottie informed me that the anesthesiologist will give me a call on Sunday night just to make sure everything is okay and I have to be there early at 6am Monday morning. I discussed with him the presence of my 8 year old son at the hospital and he made a note to pay special attention to him and my husband to make sure he knows that mommy is okay.

Yes, I am five days out from the start of a new life with my family thank you Jesus!!!

      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.
