We could definitely help each other! Here's to hoping insurance goes faster. I was just submitted but meet all the requirements so hoping it will go through the first time.

I'm getting banded July 3rd, but a bit nervous cause my last test will be June 13th to complete with all the requirements to submit to the insurance and I don't know if it will be approved before the big day.. :unsure:

I'm nervous too and made the mistake of looking a threads about complications. It only made my nervousness turn to fear blah.

So yesterday was my appointment with the doc. Saw nutritionist and pysch too. May have tentative date of July 16. Can't believe the stuff to get done. Hopefully will be done by 7/16. Whew!! woke up this morning feeling anxious and nervous. My girlfriend came over and helped me through. Now feeling like this is still the best thing to do for me.

      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.
