Thank you all for the well wishes! My surgery is scheduled bright and early. 0530 in the morning at the hospital. I'm ready to go! The two week preop diet has been doing its job. I've lost 17lbs, but I know it's not a sustainable diet. Thanks for the advice Rgreen. I'll make sure to pack those things. I'll get back to you all as soon as I can to let you know how it went and is going. Bigtex, good luck to you! Thanks to you all for the support, it's really appreciated. :)

I just found where I can search for people on the iPad. Sometimes I don't look in the most logical places...like the button that says "search". Lol!

Way to go resisting it! It's hard but just trying to retrain my thinking towards food. I have been on my preop diet for 6 days and have slipped a bit but still remained under 1200 calories. On the scales this am and have lost a total of 7.6 pounds since Monday. Having a hard time not getting on that stupid scale every morning. Anyone else?

Same here. I keep checking scale but not sure mine is correct so looking forward to dr visit. Keep up the great work

Surgery is in 3 days. Gonna admit- I am nervous as heck about the procedure. Just the whole putting me to sleep and putting a tube down my throat- I keep trying to look at the other side but geesh- today it's getting to me.

      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. 🤞
