I have to be at Forest Park by 6:30 am for prep on 9/4. I'm really nervous, excited and scared all at the same time. They did not give me a specific surgery time but based on the time it took for my EGD last week it will probably be a couple hours or so after the time I'm supposed to be there. I hope it's not a long time after my prep the waiting is awful and creates a lot of anxiety for me. I wish all of us the best for surgery and much success on this new journey in our lives.

They said my surgery time is 7:30, I have to be there at 5:30, so I would guess you are at 8:30! Looks like we have to find each other and walk together! Just curious how young the two people having surgery at Forest Park are?? I'm 31! I will be with my husband & my FIL is coming. My mom is keeping our daughter, so most likely she won't be able to come!

I told my husband I will probably be 8:30 also. Yes we will have to find each other and walk the halls to a fast recovery and kickoff to our Excercise routine. I'm a bit older at 48. My husband will be there also. What does FIL mean?

      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.
