Dr. Kim here too how are things going for you? I was sleeved about a month after you. Have you been to his support group. Just trying to find someone that has been.

Things are going great. I haven't been to any of the group meetings.

I used Dr. Kim on August 7th. I'm doing really good! I've lost 20 pounds so far! My incisions are healing very nice! He also fixed a hiatal hernia while I was in surgery! I'm very excited about this life change! Dr. Kim is a wonderful surgeon!

I'm in total aggrement.

Same day same place how are you doing?

Hey, I'm doing good, I have found a Protein shake that is working much better for me, so I'm meeting my Protein goal so that's great. I did get dehydrated last week and I'm still suffering from the effects of that, but all and all I'm doing really good! With pre-op I'm down about 40 lbs, how are things going for you?

I hope you are no where near the hurricane area and if you are that you keep safe...

Thanks Kalimom. Word down here is that it is not coming our way. Although if it changes courses we've stayed through bigger hurricanes, so we'll batten down the hatches and hang on tight.

      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.
