I had no clue this forum was up for May bandsters!

My surgery is May 21st!! I'm currently on my Pre-Op diet (day 6) I was supposed to start on Tuesday but I started on Sunday :)

I'm glad to see people getting banded on the same day I am! I'm excited and nervous but who isn't?!

Well its almost a week away I can't wait!

Thank you sweetie! My first 5 hours were miserable because I was so sleepy and I didn't know what was the pain from. Now I'm totally awake, I walked 15 minutes and I'm having a Popsicle for dinner and I feel so much better! My pain is only gas so I can not wait to start farting (Oh my what I just said haahhaha!)

Lol @ lolarose... I understand. I can't burp, I've taken several chewable gas x. The only way I get rid of the gas is walking, a heat pad, back massage & farting. Lol sad but true lol

      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.
