Ambien was a life saver the night before surgery. Just relax the best you can. Early surgery time is good, gets you in your room and healing sooner. It will all be over before you know it. Keep us updated!

I will keep you in my healing prayers! Remember not to be too hard on yourself after- you wont be able to get much liquid in for a few days and you should just relax and reat and heal and take little walks and just be happy to begin your wonderful journey!

My vlog- link below from May 9th on may help as that is when I had my sleeve.

RELAX! BREATHE! See you on the loser's bench!

Walk walk walk. That is what most people say. My really bad gas pain lasted only a day and a half and then I developed the charming proclivity for burping with EVERY sip I take- not to mentione tons out the other way too so my gas dissipated. Now I still have all of it- with every sip.

Hoefully if you walk a lot and sip a lit you will get rid of it too.

Great to have you on the Loser's Bench!

      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.
