Any Oklahoma Sleevers

Good luck with everything' date=' Kimmy. The sleep study is NOT fun, but tolerable. You will just go home and go to sleep. Your six months will be up before you know it. Hang in there..... :)[/quote']

I liked the 2nd night of the sleep study... When they put the mask on. I had never slept so good

Hi fellow Okies!! I'm getting sleeved with Dr. Broussard tomorrow. I'm on my one day of Clear Liquids before the surgery, and I have so much more sympathy for the folks who were required to be on weeks of liquids!!! It's been just 8-10 hours of clear liquids and I already just want the surgery over with so I can get to some solid food again :) It's good to know there are several of us that have used WeightWise, and it seems like it's been a generally positive experience!

Good luck, OKSleever! I had a great experience with Dr. B. He did my surgery 3 weeks ago tomorrow. The surgery will likely be the easiest part of your journey. The adjustments it causes you to make, that the hard part...at least that has been my experience thus far.

Thanks for all the well wishes everyone!! Surgery went fairly smoothly; they found a liver lesion they think is benign but otherwise it went perfectly. Tolerating liquids really well, walking every chance I get, and hope to go home later today! Love WeightWise and Dr. B; would recommend them to anyone!!!!

Hi, aonthehill!! I'm still in my 6 month diet as well. They are thinking a July surgery for me. How far are you into yours? Where are you going to be having surgery?

Ditto to Kimmy's post! And personally I have my last appt with my NUT b4 surgery on May 2nd all of my pre-op appts are done and info submitted to the surgeons office so that after that appt they will be able to send everything off to insurance. We are thinking last week of may or first week of June for me... Every day my mood about it changes a little happy, excited, scared, ready to get it over with!!! I hope that I am one of the one's saying this is the best decision I could have made.

      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
