Well I'm currently in charge of my wife's phone and I was just reading through all these posts from all you ladies, I wish you all the best. My wife is in recovery now, the doctor came out and said everything went better than he could have expected.

I'm waiting to see her now, shouldn't be too much longer.

Good luck ladies and I'm glad my wife has a support group here to help her in her journey.

I'm being banded on June 21st. Starting my Pre-Op diet on June 7th. Admittedly nervous about the pre-op diet :unsure: but know that it will be worth it in the end.

My surgery went very well today. They got me all ready with the IV and in my gown by 11:00 am and took me down to the operating room, which was freezing, but as soon as they "knocked me out" I woke up in the recovery room. I had the best recovery nurses. The only "painful" parts was the numbing agent for the IV which just stung a little, and It felt funny to breathe, like a good bit of pressure on my chest when I woke up but the nurses took awesome care of me and made sure I was comfortable until i got in my room. My incisions are sore but other than that I'm doing great! Already been up walkin around and sipping Water. you will do great! Try not to stress or worry about the surgery part none of it is bad enough to not get the band. I am so happy I'm staying over night. I think it makes. Difference from what I've read and now experiencing. Good luck! I'll continue to share tomorrow how I feel and so forth!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got 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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
