Hi everyone! My stats: I am 56 (or a mature 30 ) and am 5'5 and weigh 286. I think that's 47 in bmi land. ( however I have been sick with sinus infection for two weeks and ate way too much and walked way too little)

My doc's office is doing all the insurance work. Looking forward to surgery with Dr Andrei in Luvingston, NJ on Feb 28.

SO I decided today to look, i mean really look, at the calendar. My date of surgery is February 5th, so I have February in my brain BUT really I am in the window!!! I should begin all my vitamins! My pre-op diet of liquids will start in 2 weeks. This process has been really easy for me I feel like it is meant to be! I can't believe it is really here! :unsure:

So I was going to be sleeved on February 16th but it's now been pushed back to February 27th because of finances. I'm paying for it on my own and will be recovering mostly alone since i live in Seoul' date=' south Korea. My fiancé doesn't live close by so I'm going to be on this journey mostly alone.

I'm nervous because I'll only have about 4.5 days to recover before going back to work. Eek!

Good luck everyone!

Oh and my stats again: 24 years old, 224lbs, 5'3", BMI: 39[/quote']

Sorry you have go at this alone :( best of luck to you

      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.
