I am having my surgery at Presby Dallas also. Can you tell me how you liked the experience there and any pointers in general for the location? Thank you!!!

Hello Aimee! I had a good experience there at Presby. The nurses were great there and the ones that come in to do your blood pressure were too. They get you walking around about 2 hours after surgery and you feel so nauseas or at least I did. I stayed 2 nights and they brought me my medications on time each time. I didn't have to call to nurse station. I really wanted to go to Forest Park but insurance said Presby but it turned out to be good. There is still a lot of construction around the hospital but if you go to the main enterance the surgery admitting is right there to the right. Their OR is in the basement of the hospital. Any more questions feel free to ask... jodi.battles@gmail.com. The first 5 days were tough but it does get better and I feel great now. Almost there and I think you will like Presby as well.

I went to forest park on 11/21 .. BEAUTIFUL hospital .. I had a suite... My own living room even :) would have been a lot more enjoyable if I Hadith time there to enjoy it though :) (got to the room at 8p and checked out by 2)

Nurses were great except for that one.... :) but she didn't know the full story and was just being difficult to help me.

Anyway, beautiful hospital :)

        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
