I had to complete 6 months of nutrition supervision. My last nutrition call from the nutritionist was December 3rd. She told me she was going to fill out her paperwork and send it out that night. So now i have to wait 2-6 weeks for that phone call. Yesterday marked the beginning of the 2nd week.... So now i wait and see when my insurance will clear me for the surgery!

:)

So anxious and excited.

I am super nervous! My whole life I have been overweight! I have never been a size smaller than 18... That was in high school! So to be able to feel good, be healthy, and be able to shop is so exciting! :)

Congrats on your surgery date!

I know the lady has been trying to call me since the 6th but I didn't recognize the number! I would have been scheduled earlier!! I have Blue Cross. It's okay to be nervous its called being human! The 6 month nutrition diet is time consuming but trust me you learn a lot! At first I was hesitant about it but I tried my hardest! It's very eye opening and exciting! :)

      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.
