Suzi,

Maybe you can add a poll on the thread to get a better idea of the date. I'm pretty flexible. I don't want to drive to Richmond and then turn the next day and drive to Galveston. I live in Humble. However, we could all meet up in Galveston on Saturday. Those that want to stay there that night can, and those that want to return home could do so. There are lots of rentals around and lots of condos that have pools. There is also the Moody Gardens hotel, a little pricey I know, but it has a nice pool area, a beach, the moody garden attractions, and now the Water park. We can decide what everyone wants to do once we have a date, etc. Maybe, the bigger group meets in Galveston for lunch and goes on to whatever activities they choose. I'm pretty open, but understand that there is some financial implications with whatever we do.

Barbara-

I understand about the drive and all. Maybe I could get a suite in Galveston that Friday night to hold the Slumber Party. It only lasts a few hours (kind of my reason for hosting the event). Then we'd have the rest of the weekend at the beach or Moody Gardens or wherever we all decided on. So were you thinking about getting a room in Galveston for the get-together? Maybe I can call to see if any of the hotels will give us a better rate for booking a block of rooms. I'm game!

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

      2. 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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
