of couse you should be scare, but trust God hands and you will be ok. the surgery itself for me was not a major thing just bring uncomfortable the first day, then day two and three was a piece of cake. the crew at the hospital I was were God sends. am loving every day that goes by with no regret. I have lost since surgery 36 pounds.

Thank you nervous my day is sept 10 at Lenox hospital I just hate that throw up feeling the first day and the way I won't be able to eat that I love. How and what do I eat when I go out with my friends or on dates. But still have to be cleared by my doctor I didn't pass the EKG so I have to see a cardiologist they said my left ventricle slightly enlarged

Remember this is a life changing tool, you will be able to eat what you want but smaller portion, just think you had spend all your life eating what you loved and that had bring you were you are now ! be patient and enjoy one day at a time... after surgery you would not feel hungry at all, so its like painless weight loss..

when you go out on dates and with friends you will be less expensive because you will not be able to finish a whole plate, with friends you can share an order or take a goody bag home! Youll be fine, just worry to recovery healthy and f

steady, drink your Protein and most importantly your Vitamins.

Yes, i have loss 39 pounds since surgery and was sleeved on 7/12/13. I also, had high blood pressure, diabetes type 2 and taking numeros medications. when you go to the Cardiologist the trick is to be relax or else your exams will not be favorable.. even at day of surgery you have to be relax if not they will even can cancle your surgery. I definately feel awesome and you can do it too !

my soups are homemade which are better, but when my Protein intake are low my resource is Bariatric Choice, is an amazing website that is design for bariatric patients and high in Protein. For example chicken Soup a box of seven $10.95 and has 15 grams of protein, they carry numerous variety.

I also, consume from them the hot chocolate which has 15 grams of protein an is delicious!

i drink muscle milk light 4 oz with 1 scoop of Zero carb Isopure unflavored powder which contains 39 grams of protein per scoop.

G2 from gatorade is great and plenty of Smart Water which contains electrolytes to avoid dehydration.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      3. buildabetteranna

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
