October Sleevers...so Excited!



Recommended Posts

I just got back from my PCP's office, had a physical, she took down all the information that needs to be sent to my surgeon for medical clearance, I cant wait for 10/18, It's like time is slowing down. The days are going by so so slow. I dont even want to go to work, I just want to stay home and daydream about getting this surgery. I was waiting for the scared emotion to hit me but, NOPE, just butterflys in the stomach excitement!!!

Anyone else excited and NOT scared for their special day to arrive?

I'm scheduled for Tuesday October 16th. I'm nervous but also soo excited. I've been doing pretty good on my one week preop diet and I've been walking around mall about three times this week for extra exercise. Every time I go to buy something I stop myself and get excited that soon I will be smaller and will be able to wear some cuter clothes soon. :-)

      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.
