December Surgeries?



Recommended Posts

Yeah, that's it Nena...and though most are not meant to be rude or degrading, they simply don't know all that is entailed. I have one male co-worker ( we get along and laugh and have fun) but he is Paleo, and he swears by it..he truly believes that larger people are all lazy and over eat...and that is not it for all. He is simply the type that rags on anyone and anything that does not conform to his way of life. But for me, the people that really matter to me know, and are all excited...they have seen and lived through my struggles...and they are all that I care about.

My date is December 26th.

I have been approved without seeing a nut, but I am seeing one tomorrow just to help prepare myself. I'm a person that likes to plan everything and its hard for me to feel like there are so many unknowns. I want to have everything on hand at home before surgery because it won't be possible to drive myself to get what I need afterward.

Don't let it discourage you. You are going to do great whenever you get your surgery. Don't know how they missed that at your Dr.tho. Is ur surgery still going to be in December?

      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
