That would be a great idea. We can start exercising 6 wks after with no heavy lifting

I am looking forward to all of that. I want to go hiking, bike riding, rock climbing (inside of course) lol One thing that I always wanted to do was jog. Im getting old and I need to get my heart strong lol

I am not sure if I said but the doctors office called me last night. I have my surgery date set now for June 14th. I go in to see him on June 13th. I will be going to Dallas that Thursday have my office visit spend the night at a hotel then have surgery next day. I will do all my follow up care here in Houston with Dr. Hollis @ True Results.

I had my surgery today and I'm at home resting. Dr. Hollis is soo nice and caring. He came and spoke to me before surgery to see how I was and answer all my questions and also afterwards. I'm in a little bit of pain but its not all that bad. Overall it was a good experience :) Oh and I'm down 9 pounds from the pre-op diet!!

I feel ok I guess. As long as I'm sitting down I'm good but as soon as I get up to walk around I be in so much pain. The good this is I don't be hungry which is a total shock to me.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

        LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
