Good luck with your surgery. You said "app" so I am guessing you are on your phone or tablet? If so, check it out on your PC. Much more powerful that way. Welcome aboard!

Congratulations on your new adventure.

Like the others you will benefit from all the knowledge on this forum.

When I stay away from the forum then I tend to get sloppy with my eating habits.

Welcome to the forum. I wish you best of luck with your surgery. I'm new here and once was looking forward to going for surgery. However, I tried to keep my diet low and I started exercising a lot. As a result now I'm completely looking fine. I saved my money!

Hey everyone, ran across this site while researching the band and I've seen some great stuff. I'm scheduled to get my band on 7/26/13. Right now just working though the pre op diet (which is going much easier than expected).

      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.
