I had my one on one with My Dr. Today. I have to go on liquid diet and lose some weight before surgery. No specific amount but he asked that I work on it and really try. He also discussed my health history with me and other things going on and he strongly recommended Bypass over lapBand. Going forward with his suggestion of doing the Bypass after our lengthy talk about it all. Surgery date is the same but new paperwork submitted to Health Insurance for approval which Dr. says is not a prob as it's been done before. The office didn't have any samples of the protien shake they recommend so I stopped by costco and picked up the Protien drink he also recommended from their. I will start to incorporate it into my diet and get used to it now and not wait until the last minute. I'm nervous.

So I guess with the change in Procedure from Lap Band to Gastric Bypass I don't really fit into this group anymore :wacko:

      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.
