3 Days to go!



Recommended Posts

OK, I am now 3 days away from this thing. It has totally consumed my mind and I am having trouble concentrating... I find myself drifting to the actual day and my palms get a little sweaty...

I am going to see STYX this weekend and I am finding it hard to be excited about this (this is NOT normal) knowing what I am going through on Monday! I just got my surgery time 7:30 and I have to be there 1 1/2 hours before hand... I wish I could just forget about it until Sunday night, I know that will never happen..

Anywhooo...

Going out of town, then to parents for sleep over (leaving my daughter there to go bright n early Monday) I am not sure if I will be able to check here or write. If not....

SEE YOU IN BANDLAND!!!

I cannot believe it is here already! I get shivers just thinkin' it might have been me! :D

I'm really thrilled for you and I will be praying for you! You have been researchng and soul-searching and YOU ARE READY!! This is just ONE MORE STEP! (Remind me of all this in a month, ok!?)

How is the pre-diet going? Has it been difficult for you? What did Patrizia advise you for after surgery? Is there a 24-hr fast the day before surgery for Dr. Deol?

Oh, I'm so excited for you!! breathe, breathe, breathe! (Though not too deeply at the concert, you never know what may be airborne! :smoke LOL!

Post as soon as you can! I wonder if Rebecca will give me an update so I can post for you? If you'd like me to, I'd be glad to! Let me know if I can do anything!

Bailey, try to realx and enjoy the concert!! Great idea, to do something so fun and distracting during the last few days. I went on a long weekend trip to Cape Cod the week before my surgery, and it really helped to ease the tension.

Good luck next week, and let us know how it went!!

As usuall we had a fantastic time! Nice seats so we were able to see the show!

We met the Nelson's, they are definitely easy on the eyes! Very nice guys!!

OKAY,

Now for tomorrow... I have a weird CALM over me, I don't know why but I am going to try to run with it! Every once and awhile I get this flush over me, like what the heck am I doing???

The day after tomorrow at this time I will be home and healing! Will try to pop on and say "hi"!

Fred8998 your short but sweet words are great for me to focus on! Thanks!

Thanks to all who have replied, I showed them to my mother and she thinks it is great that I have a support board like this!!

OH and Debra thanks for letting me take your old date! YOURS will be here real soon!!!

Will talk to you all soon!

      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.
