I'm june 7 th and I'm on day 6 of my three week liquid diet. I am starting at 351lbs but have probably lost around 10 lbs this week. It has been really hard for me. I have been in mourning for my old lifestyle. I am feeling a little better everyday. I spend a ton of time on this site and it has helped a lot. I get on when ever I am super depressed about everything. I would live to have a fellow June buddy to go through this with. :)

I'll be ur June buddy. Don't quite

Anyway, I got a call from my surgeon's office this morning, my surgery is scheduled for June 26. I'm so ready for this!!!

Randolph - I am doing the south beach diet for my pre-op. It shows I can have sugar free Jello, or sugar free hard candy. Not sure if that will work for you, but it helps the sugar craving some what. I have my sugery on the 16th.

      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. 🤞
