Orchidfan and I have made it to Mexicali and had a wonderful dinner last night with her father. Today is the day. We are at the hospital and are waiting to go in for our VG. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers. I hope this comes out on the forum clear as I'm typing it onto the site with my blackberry. Hope we are both online later with our progress.

Yep, your message is on the forum. We are all cheering for you, and I know you will do great. I had my VSG done there 6 days ago and am feeling great!

Best of luck to you, and keep us updated on your progress!

Yah for Trudy and Ivy!

I hope to hear from you soon. I am putting my bags in the car in a little while. We have to leave here at 3:30am to get to the airport on time.

I hope to see you tomorrow walking the halls. Hugs, Judy

Thanks for the update - by now you are out of surgery - perhaps both you and Trudy are both out of surgery - and in recovery - we will look forward to updates from both of you -- be sure and look for Judy tomorrow while you're wandering the halls! Keep us posted!

I am thrilled for you guys, and jealous that three of you get to meet. One of these days, we are going to have to plan some sort of meet up. I think it would definitely be a blast.

I'm out and on the road to losersville. We will all have to try and set up maybe an annual weekend. Hey Vegas would be a great start! I haven't heard from Orchidfan sees diagnol across the hall. I was the last procedure so I'm sure you all will be hearing from her soon. Well I think that is about all I can do think I need to get some sleep. Thank you all for you support we both appreciate it. Judy if I'm not out wandering the halls I am in room 27 see you soon.

Glad to hear everyone is out of surgery and recovering - sleep when you need to and then walk, walk, walk ...we'll look forward to seeing your posts when you're up to it.

Tell Judy we all say "Hello" and that we'll look forward to hearing from/about her when she's feeling up to it!

Be sure to take a group photo and post it!

      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.
