I am scheduled for the 29th. Is anyone else a little scared? I have a couple friends who've done it and it wasn't until yesterday that I felt nervous. I have to do a 2 week liquid so they're starting me June 15th and I'm nervous about that too. It's going to be ok right? And I'm going to live through it right? Haha I'm only half joking. Eek

Hi June Bandsters! I'm new to this site as of yesterday and am appreciating all your posts, questions and input. I'm scheduled for 6/15 and am only 2 days in on Pre-op diet (yikes)! I haven't been to any classes (none offered) so LBT is proving especially helpful. I'm currently on my iPad and it doesn't seem to work as well as when I'm on the site via desktop. Anyone have any input on this?

Hello everyone! I'm new here & I love that y'all are so excited!! It makes me excited too ;-) I am scheduled Wednesday for my first appointment. I'm doing self-pay, so I'm wondering what's the soonest they will schedule my surgery? Is there a waiting period other than the two weeks for the liquid diet? Yay for all of you who are scheduled this week!!!

      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.
