Recommended Posts

That's great that you have help

It will be a breeze for you

I had to cook, clean, do laundry etc

Take advantage of the help the first week out

Luckily I don't have sleep apnea so they cancelled my second sleep study :-)

The first one I could not sleep there at all

It was a long night

I got thru all of the appointments with taking a few half days at work

They schedule as many appointments as they can all on one day if u ask

They really put you thru a lot of testing

After all the appointments are done it's such a good feeling that you are almost there

You will be there before you know it!

I am.glad that I have some time...I am trying to get emotional ready...congrats on your success..

It is a good idea to get emotionally ready

It's not easy to change eating habits

Not having carbs has been hard

I was a big Pasta , pizza person!

Now I have to do Protein protein and more protein

That's been the most difficult thing to adjust to.

      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.
