I'm still preop but my surgeon said I would only stay one night less than 24 hrs if no complications

@dawnduke - Yeah Idk why this happens but when I first got my call from the insurance they told me the same thing. They gave me a date, but when I called my surgeons office they said that they would be the ones assigning my date for me. :( Hopefully you can get your official date soon. Keep us updated and Let us know what they tell you :)

Hi beautifulnewme2012, sorry to hear about your date changing. I know what you mean about just wanting to move on from the waiting already. BUT I am also May 15th :) Hopefully time will go a little faster. I've been feeling like the days are dragging by. Good Luck to you!!

@Committed...I just want it over with BECAUSE, every since I got approved the sky has fallen...LOL...tons of stuff going wrong every which way. Things we have had to maneuver thru to keep my date...so it being further away leaves room for more to go wrong! And I can't take anymore!! LOL

@beautifulnewme ..ahh I know what you mean. I've felt the similar. I've had my approval since February 24th and thought for sure I'd have it at least by April but I was thrown off course with a couple of obstacles as well. Lets keep our fingers crossed that nothing else goes wrong. I will keep you in my prayers and hopefully May 15th can just get here already for both of us!!! :)

      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.
