Recommended Posts

I'll be getting my procedure done in Cancun with Dr verboonen. So far my experience has been good with Sheri Burke, the coordinator (actually excellent). I'll let you all know more as I get there and post-op!

Best of luck to you! You don't have much longer to wait until your new path starts. How exciting! Can't wait to hear how it all goes and enjoy that beach. Soak up the peace that only the ocean can give you and be ready to tackle the world!

Thanks Miss Hope-Best of luck to you too! All of us on this post are really close! We should keep in touch. BTW, how do you like GA? I've thought about moving there from CT for a while now.

I really like the Augusta area. I am from South Carolina originally, so The South is in my blood, so to speak. My husband retired from the Navy and "real life" led us here. Have been here for a year and a half and am really starting to feel "homey". It's hot as all get out right now with no ocean breeze relief (what I'm used to!). You should vacation this way and see all Georgia/South Carolina has to offer! One visit to Savannah and you'll be hooked! LOL

Oh my gosh! It is so funny you said Savannah! That is what was in my mind....I have actually been looking at houses online in Richmond Hill!

        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.

      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
