I could seriously hurt someone... I've screamed at my son all afternoon. I have never been this irritable. I want food and I want it right freakin now. Doesn't have to be anything sugar laden or fattening; just something to feel my tummy. My head hurts, I'm on the verge of tears and could really lash out at everyone. Now I have to go to my son's school - and they're eating - food. And smiling... And will probably expect me to smile a well. And if I hear one more person tell me "it'll be worth it", I may stab them with a fork. I am miserable.

My Pre op is 10 days. My fear if I don't complete it - they'll get in there and see food that wasn't on the diet and say "cancel"! I'm fortunate in that mine is not all liquids. I need for these next several days to pass by quickly. :(

LOL!! I right there with y'all! I'm very irritated right now. Mine is ALL liquid for 14 days. I'm scared too that if I don't do everything by the book, they will open me up and find my liver didn't shrink.... but this is SOOOOOOO HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(

Sigh.... Why are doctors all so different?? Why do some only have a few days? Or all liquids? I feel guilty for complaining. :'(

I feel like I'm going to die of mal nutrition before I get to surgery! I seriously don't feel like I'm getting the things I need. I'm beginning to be an emotional wreck just two days in. :blink:

He's on his own for dinner lol :P What does he expect? lol I'm not gonna make a delicious meal that I can't eat! pfft! lol

What kind of Protein Shakes are you guys drinking? I need to get ready made shakes. I've been blending mine and I'm rather tired of it. :)

I've been using Premier Protein and LOOOVEE it! I just ran out yesterday and tried the Body Fortress I heard about on here from Walmart but eh! I didn't like it. Have to go stock up on some more Premier Protein. I bought mine at Sams Club but they sell them at costco too.

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
