It is great to connect with you both! This will allow us to stay in touch and compare notes :) I wish the best of luck to you both! I am feeling a little anxious! I spoke to a friend of mine who did this last year and she also said that I should go ahead and eat today to my hearts content because it is my last meal! I am afraid to go off of the liquid diet bc I don't know what could happen to me!!! @ Laragarza, who is your doctor?

Don't binge today because you don't want your surgery to be cancelled!!! You can do it, you have made it this far, no turning back now!!! Good luck to you :)

That's the way to think about it!!! Add you some beef and chicken broth in there today to...sugar free Popsicles are also great, stay away from the red color since you are so close to surgery!!! I am prod of your willpower. Those that ave gone enforce us ave been there done that so they can easily sway us. I know your previously sleeved girlfriend means well...

      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.
