HOLY CRAP! I can not believe that in less than 24 hours I will be sleeved. It seems unreal. Like a dream. I never ever thought I would get here. I figured my insurance would deny me or I would chicken out. I still feel like something will happen, maybe my car will break down or my surgeon will cancel. I'm just so amazed that this is happening I'm having a hard time believing it's true.

With 16 hours away from being sleeved I am proud of myself, I had to cook today for the superbowl party and I did it all withut tasting or feeling I was missing out on anything. No food funeral for me. The only issue I have is the laxative the doctor ordered. It is kicking my butt. Good Luck to everyone tom.

Hi All - I started my liquid diet on Wed. 2/1. I'm already down 11lbs for a total of 23lbs since initial consult for WL Surgery. I feel sooo much better on these shakes and have so much energy!! Anyone else experience this??? Don't get me wrong at times I'm really physically hungry but all in all I feel it has been easier since all my food options are off the table and this is all I can consume. I feel more fit for my surgery. Doctor wanted me to lose 30lbs by surgery date (2/16) which I think I will exceed now. On my way down the scale thank goodness!!!

BTW - I'm on HMR 800 shakes...

Im getting excited, I have a date of 3/28/12 for my surgery. Im trying to pull all the loose ends together before I go, seems like so much to do for a single parent, if it gets done, I have to be the one to do it. Im trying to do everything I can before I go, because of the lift restriction. I have tons fo things to do. :aureola:

YES! whatever you do don't wait til your on your liquid preop to think, MAN i need to clean do laundry and a million other things, you won't have the energy! Found that out the hard way so I just did what had to be done and now the rest can wait til I'm all healed up! Then I'm hoping for more energy down the road :)

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
