Oh me too! And Dr. Lopez bumped my surgery day up from 3/11 to 3/10. Idk why the one day change has me so excited but it does! :-D

You will love dr Lopez. He and his nurses are so cool.. Loved them. Tell Karen and Elizabeth hi for me. Don't forget the card that tells you have had the surgery so you can get discount or order off children's menu. And the girls will want a picture of you before you leave. The driver from airport to hotel is so funny. Ask him to take you shopping. And make sure you get some mexician vanilla.

Same as garcias. I read here that the liquid and 3 days of clear liquid was for RNY. Have you aske alma about that? I'd hate for you to do it when it wasn't necessary. Or me not to do it if it WAS!

I'm not using R4C. I'm using ALM. Also, I have high BMI. Thanx for looking out.

A must buy. Just make sure it goes into the checked bag. It is so very good. Makes nice gifts and is fairly inexpensive. The driver took us to Revolution Road to shop. And we went out to a nice seafood restaurant the first night for your spouses. Everything was very good.

      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.
