Recommended Posts

Bwahahahaha!!!!! :D

U r too funny!! But I know how u feel. I can't seem to stay off the app n searching up before n after pics. Lol. It just keeps exciting me more n more. Everytime I eat something as well I think to myself' date=' pretty soon I won't be able to eat any of this. Lol. I'm even trying to find ways to borrow the money so I can go sooner!!! Lol. No luck there just yet. Lol[/quote']

You and me both! I was telling my Mom early I may go to the bank and try to take out a loan with my car as collateral. Lol but I don't know... I think March will be a good month for me. It's not that far off and it will give me time to continue researching and get my passport and all that. I want to be mentally prepared for this.

I've read a few bad experiences today and it's got me second guessing myself... But I just have to do it. I can't continue gaining weight :( and the whole diet and exercise thing just doesnt work for me. One of the main reasons why I want this surgery is because it helps with the hunger hormone. I will be more apt to stick with it then! I've always been able to lose weight with diet pills but once I stop taking them, the weight comes back!

I agree totally. I'm the same way with the diets. I told my mom the same thing when she asked why don't I just stick to a strict diet. I've done all that n its just so easy to cheat n gain double back. Atleast with this surgery, I have no choice to change my eating habits permanently.

Yep! And it's not that much more! Look into it! It's beautiful. I'm undecided too... I also was checking plane tickets in March and the tix to PV were like 200 dollars cheaper than going to San Diego.< /p>

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
