Okay so... as we all know from my last few posts I have fallen off the diet wagon since booking my surgery date last month, but I have still been keeping to my work out routine which consists of running 4 times a week (plus whatever I do with the kids I teach twice a week in gym- not a lot since they are lazy but I'm working on physical fitness with them).

I moved my surgery date up from March to Jan 21st... I am excited but I think right now more scared, and nervous!

If I have fallen off the diet wagon now, what makes me think I can keep to the much more strict routine and diet post op?

I'm just second guessing myself right now... did anyone else feel this way?

I can't stick to a diet lol I know the sleeve will work for me because its a tool. My stomach will be smaller, and the hunger hormones aren't going to be as bad. I believe that will help me. I'm going to follow the diet with the sleeve because I wouldn't want to jeopardize my health. Right now, I just eat whatever and don't care about the consequence, but once I get the sleeve there will be consequences if I eat the wrong things

It is so much easier to stick to it after surgery! You will be amazed how little you eat and are satisfied! the sleeve is an awesome tool.

Thanks guys, you are definitely right, thanks for reminding me! after hours and hours and hours of research this doubt has just come over me tonight and I've somehow forgotten all of the basics... I will feel satisfied with small amounts of food post op. I'm just hoping I will stick the right foods in my mouth...

For the first 3 weeks you will have to keep track of your liquids, Protein, and I do calories but not necessary because I've only been over 400 1 day.

I can send you the 14 day pre op diet that my dietician sent me if you like. I really enjoyed doing it as it consisted of foods I really like. Just put your email address if you would like me to send you it. You loose about a stone (14 pounds) in the first week. Xxxx

      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
