Recommended Posts

I am so totally ready for this. I feel like I have researched this until I was blue in the face. I am confident this is the right step for me.... I am trapped in a fat person's body. I haven't felt like my self for five years. I want to dance, and karaoke again :-)

My doctor only makes his patients to a liquid pre op diet the day before. Can you believe we only have 10 days left?? I am getting very anxious!!!!

I can't wait for these 10 days to be up!! Im so ready to move on over to the other side. Its funny how these surgeons do things so differently. Glad to see others going in on the same day.. we can help and support each other.

We will definitely need to keep each other posted... I just found out I have to be at the hospital at 5:30am. The hospital is an hour away. This means I have to be up at 3:30 ouch!

I'm the 30th as well!! And I'm also doing a preop liquid diet (started Monday). It's my choice as I'm not over the 300# mark that is required by my doctor for a liquid diet.

I do Protein shakes (Chike, EAS Myoplex and Muscle Milk) throughout the day, but I need to get in more Water. I switched over to Silk Soy milk to hopefully help not get a lactose intolerance. And I allow myself 1 Soup a day just to get in some flavor and warmth. I haven't gotten the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury yet. Where does everyone get it from?

I've done a juice fast (nothing but blended up fruits and vegetables) for 10 days straight before, so this isn't too bad for me yet. Today was the first day I actually missed food - but that was only because I grabbed my girls a happy meal since we were running errands all day today. And no, I didn't cheat once (not even to lick the ketchup off of my finger!).

Wow mustangsherry that's really early...but it will all be worth it. The Cleveland Clinic won't even give a time until the day before. I'm with you though.. I have done lots of research and know the risks vs the benefits and I know this is the right decision for me. I have MS and my doctor said I will feel alot better after this too.

      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. 🤞
