Thanks FatFreeMe! Good luck to you too. I have been to the Miriam Hospital group once but I prefer some of the others because they are smaller.

I'm in NH!! Heyyyy!! I had my surgery sept 7th! 2 weeks today. I'm down 25 since surgery and 45 lbs total with my pre op diet. I'm pretty good now, little to very minimal pain, everything went smoothly for me. Best wishes! I just got back from a few days in Jamestown RI for some relaxation! It was beautiful!!

Tekara, i am in Portsmouth too and i am just starting my journey. Had my first consult with the Nurse practitioner on friday and made my Nutrition and PT appointments already. I would love to get your feedback on the team here. From what you have posted so far, it seems like you are very happy so far.

      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.
