All Sept 12 Sleevers - Are You Ready?



Recommended Posts

I am scheduled for tomorrow afternoon and yes I am nervous.. but I think I am more nervous about what life would be like if I don't have it... I have been on the low carb for two weeks and today is day 2 of the clear liquid pre-op... I have lost 8 lbs... but I am STARVING... ugh. There isn't enough broth/jello/Mio/water to fill me up lol... But I know it will be worth it.... I watched two of my aunts die morbidly obese and I don't want to "be them" and that's where I am headed if I don't have it... Prayers and blessings for everyone..!

Wow I can't believe that after all those long months of pre op testing my day is finally here. Tomorrow @ 745 am. I can't wait. I am a little nervous and anxiety. For the past few days I haven't been able to even get my shakes and Water in. I know I will definately have to work on that. Good luck tomorrow to all the sleevers being done tomorrow and I wish you all a speedy recovery! See you on the other side!

I have to take 2 enemas but I don't think its as effective as drinking the magnesium carbonate. I might need to go make a run to Walmart

Wow.. I am lucky I guess... two days clear liquid ( I am starving by the way, ugh ) and one anti nausea pill three hours prior to surgery tomorrow afternoon... No enemas, laxatives, or magnesium whatever that is LOL

Surgery in the morning @ 7:30, wow can't believe the time has finally came... I didn't have to drink any of that-just did 2 weeks of pre-op liquid diet & I did good but all the sudden now the evening before I'm starving but this time tomorrow I'll be sleeved... Praying for nothing crazy to happen... Wishing everyone luck & Gods blessings on you tomorrow...

      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.
