I will be having mine done late January. I was really hoping to get it done sooner, but his office seems to move very slow on getting back to me. I don't know of any other VS surgeons in the area though.

There arent any that I know of. I know there are a lot of extra steps that others dont have to do at other facilities, but believe me it is worth everything they do. It is all a plan that helps you after the surgery. A lot of the slowness can be the insurance company as well. Mine was approved 3 months early and they got me in with in 3 wks of the approval.

I'm still debating between vsg and the band and won't be getting either done in Ohio...but I live here! In Columbus. Should we arrange a weekly tea meeting & support group or something?

I'm also in Columbus and working with Fresh Start. Surgery is scheduled for 4/4. I am getting absolutely NO support from my husband. Not only is he not going to be present during my surgery, he wont even take the two days off after my surgery to help me care for our 1 year old son. I would really love to meet with a group to exchange meal ideas, triumphs, troubles, and even clothes! Good days for me are Monday, Friday, & Saturday. Let me know if/when/where you decide to get together.

      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. 🤞
