That's why my date is June 29. I can take off anytime, but that's my husband's week off and he can just take a couple of days off before vacation then go back after his regular week off. I am excited this is actually about to happen! Dreading this darn preop thing though!

Well I made it through surgery and have gone for a walk. I just have to say that I'm so proud of all of us for doing this. I think it can be a tough decision to make and I know that my last 24 hours were a bit nerve wracking. I'm excited that we have this opportunity to live a healthier life. Am I feeling sentimental or is it the drugs talking?? At any rate, I hope everyone is recovering well and good luck to tomorrow's group, you'll do great.

Okay everyone' date=' I had my blood draw this morning and am finished with my pre-admit process. Nothing else left to do but wait and stick to the pre-op diet. The only thing I am concerned with is that I am having allergy issues which is causing a persistent cough due to post nasal drip. Other than I am ready to go.

T minus seven days and counting.

I has sinus surgery 8 weeks prior to my VSG and was having coughing right up to surgery. My ENT actually gave me these teeny tiny pills to help control my cough should it be out of control. You might wanna talk to your doctor about the same if it continues. That being said, they do want you to cough some after surgery to get the stuff that builds up in your lungs out and it HURTS! I got lucky and have had minimal coughing and haven't needed any of that cough medicine. However, even at a week out coughing isn't any fun.

I plan on going as often as I can. There is actually a meeting June 19 according to the schedule. :) I thought maybe on one of my post-op walks I'd swing by and check it out. LOL :lol: Yeah, right. Somehow I don't think so. When did/do you have your pre-op class?

      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.
