I have been keeping my self busy by working overtime at work....but to add to my frustration of not being able to eat solid food I started my monthly yesterday and I always crave Taco Bell when I am on it...........Talk about Crappy and I pass 2 on my way home from work!!!!!!! I keep telling myself I can do this I can do this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only 11 days til getting my sleeve =-)

Hi Kayla...It sounds like we have the same surgery date. I am on day 4 of my liquid diet also. It has been a struggle. I don't like to go out...because I see too many places that I use to eat at...that I can't eat at.

But, I think it is good to keep busy.

Let me know if you would like to become buddies...

Have a wonderful day,

Toyia

Hi Kayla,

My surgery date is Aug. 8th in Silver Spring, MD with Dr. Cantor at Holy Cross Hospital.

I have Kaiser Insurance. My starting weight was 245. I weighted myself last night and I am 233 now.

I am starting day 6 of my pre-op liquid diet and I lost 5 lbs between yesterday and today... is this normal? I have lost a total of 10 lbs in less than a week (and if I include the weight I lost last week...I am down 15 lbs in 12 days).

      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.
