I will, I promise. I'm was ok but they've just changed my hotel yesterday to the campanile in vilvoorde from the lodge hotel. The difference is huge. I was actually really looking forward up staying in the lodge hotel and it was helping me focus knowing I'd be staying somewhere nice but now staying an old beige looking thing.

I leave on the 8th and I'm going by Eurostar. My consultation is in the evening and I go into hospital at 7am the next day. I'll have the op, stay the night and will be discharged at 1pm the next day.

Not sure what u know already/don't want to know but I'll keep updated! :)

It'll be fine it's just a bit if a shock st the last minute when I was excited about going to the lodge and having somewhere nice for my husband to stay. I'm so glad he's coming with me! Are u going on your own? I'm in Birmingham. We would have flown but it was less than half price for us both to go by Eurostar but u never know u may get goodluck with your tickets.

      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. 🤞
