My surgery has been scheduled for January 30th. The doctors office originally wanted me to have surgery on December 17th but I wanted to wait until the new year for insurance purposes. Now my deductible will be paid in full for the rest of the year. I'm very excited and have told the few people I feel comfortable telling for now. Can't wait to read all the success stories. Good luck!

Omg!!! It's only 50 days until my surgery in Puerto Vallarta, MX. It seems like forever, yet so close!!! I am so excited, yet crazy anxious....trying to start getting myself together. I have stopped drinking dr. Pepper as of last week. Dealing with sugar and caffeine withdrawal , but glad to be doing it to be able to have surgery. I just wanna do this right this time. I wanna lose it and keep it off. I know it won't be easy, but I am so ready for it.

I quit soda at the beginning of October cold turkey! Probably not the smartest thing to do considering my miserable headaches and 'tude I had! Just ask my husband. Haha! But I'm sure flag I did it and I lost SIX pounds the two weeks after quitting. The impending surgery is very exciting! Good luck to you. ????

      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.
