Stick to your pre-op diet' date=' get used to taking Protein drinks and smaller portions - it helps make the transition less drastic. I spent alot of time watching You Tube videos of people who have documented their journeys and found it be help ease any concerns I had and actually ramped up my excitement to be on the other side of surgery!

Wrap you mind around this as much as you can, because that is where the challenge is going to be. The surgery, that's the easy part![/quote']

Thank you. 2more days n I'll be in the losers bench. So nervous. >_<

I wouldn't worry about it. If you have been on a bender then they might. LOL.

Hope you enjoyed them it will be a while before you can have another. That sounds so good right now. :-(

Hi, I'm waiting on my first apt with surgeon. My BMI is about 35 and hoping he will consider a sleeve after 12 years of failed lap and. I live in Australia

I am 45 and live with my amazing (and Whippet slim) girlfriend - have 5 children between us!

I am more scared 'coming out' about my otential surgery than telling people I am a lesbian.

Everyone has such a strong opinion and hideous stories of people requiring liquid diets forever or months and months of intravenous food.

My fingers toes and everything in between is crossed I am eligible.

My partner is amazing and supportive. She tells me she adores me as I am but I do not like myself and Sam concerned for my health.

Hi, My BMI was 35 and my surgeon did not hesitate. I had Patrick Moore at Epworth Private at Box Hill in Melbourne. Everything went really smoothly and I have lost 25 kilos since surgery on November 14. I have absolutely no regrets. Good luck.

      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
