:( Today my Dr called me to tell me they have to move my surgery AGAIN! It started at Journey lite then to Jewish hospital then back to Journey lite and today they called to say back to Jewish Hospital!!! So now the date is August 2nd and not the first. Seems so easy but it change who is keeping my daughter overnight, my time off work, my registration at the place i thought i was having surgery, the FMLA paperwork ...it's so annoying to have this happen again. I know it's only a day but it's been a pain in paperowrk for me. It had better not happen again!!!

You are not alone. My surgery has been moved from July 18th to Aug. 1 to Aug. 8th. So, I understand how you feel. But you are so close to the finish line...stay strong and you will have your new tummy and life soon.

good luck with everything n i hope they dont change the date anymore, i know how hard all the preparation and paperwork can be because i also have a child and a job, hang in there though u dont know exactly what could have happened had u had it on the initial surgery date, everything happens for a reason. my process for the surgery took a little over a year, i even have up and thought they would never call me and then one day out of the blue i got a call and my surgery was sheduled 2 weeks after that day and they changed the time like 3 times so i was on liquids for 2 days feeling faint weak u name it, anyhow now im almost 70lbs weight loss with 5 months after surgery and im so happy that it worked out!! good luck again.

        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.

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

      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
