Recommended Posts

Congratulations and good luck! I was six days ahead of you and want you to know I had a few unexpected problems, but still consider the overall experience to have been very positive. (Did you run around tonight like I did during my last couple of hours of "real food, " eating "my last chips, " "my last piece of cake", etc.?) Best wishes to you on your big day - I bet you'll do great!

No, I have been on a two week pre-op diet so it was 5 oz Protein and salad veggies for me last night! But the first few days of it I dreamed of food! Lol

I am having my surgery tomorrow also. I have to be up at 6am for lab work, but I don't think I will sleep much anyway. Pre-op was hard for me, but clears is even harder. All I can think about is food. A lot of people say their desire for food and hunger goes away completely or is much less after surgery. Hopefully that will happen for me. Anyway. Good luck and see you in loser land.

      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.
