Good to hear! New Directions is the stuff my doctor gave me too for 2 weeks. How does it taste? I have shakes, hot cocoa, pudding and cream of chicken Soup. I can also have crystal light, SF Popsicles and SF Jello in between. I start mine on 7/10.

Not really but this forum has a wealth of info, and kettering hospital has a support program for bariatric patients maybe you could go to that even though you didn't have surgery there.

And I wonder ... What the hell I about to do? That is my question this morning at 4 am . Today is my official day to start my diet (been practicing for almost 2 months) July 3rd is my date! I hope that I am not going to second guess myself about my decision. I know I need to do this ...why can't I think positive that nothing will happen and all I am going to regret is not doing it earlier??? I am so scared ????

I know where you are coming from, and from what i can tell we are both teachers and both going to Dr. Nicholson in Dallas. I have had some of the same thoughts, but i try to always look on the positive side of things. Think of your health and how much it is going to approve over the next 6 months. Think of how much better you are going to feel, how much more energy you will have to do things you haven't been able to in such a long time. Those are the things that keep me going and actually make me excited about the surgery. Hope this helps! Always here to talk if you need someone.

I was just approved today for July 23rd! I am stocked up on books from Barnes and Noble about all different aspects and expectations of surgery. I'm currently looking for books that deal with the emotional aspect after surgery and have seemed to find some good things on Amazon. Good luck to everyone!

      Hey guys new to the process looking forward to this new life.

      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.
