Recommended Posts

Thanks! I got it done on Wednesday' date=' the 19. I'm waiting at the Marriott now and leave for the airport home in an hour. I loooovvved the nurse with the blonde hair and braces at mi doctor.

Jeneger, thanks for your videos. They helped ease my mind. Good luck to all you future folks! Mi Doctor was great.[/quote']

Nice! I think the nurses name is Sam? I initially gained 6lb in the hospital (fluids). I am 11 days out and after surgery have lost 22lb. Let me know if you have any questions.

July 25th for me! So stoked! Will be arriving at the Mi Doctor Hospital in TJ on the 24th and surgery will be the next day. I think mom and I might go check out San Diego some.....neither of us are really interested in TJ honestly. We're total Cali virgins from MI so the very thought of "touching" California land is like......holy for us lol. Anywhooo....I know I won't be able to do much sight seeing or anything once I'm post-op....so I've got that one day. Mom'll be going nuts though haha! I told her she can just stay out of my hair as much as possible and get a cab and go see San Diego the whole time lol. Love her and all.....but if recovery is anything like the before/after of having my babies I'd rather be left quite alone, with my macbook for company. LOL.

Anyways, surgery is with Dr. Cabrera and I went through medicaltourismco, I think that's what it's called. I'm too lazy to check my emails for it.....meh, you know what I'm talking about if it matters to you anyways lol.

Can't wait to get this behind me baby!!!

      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.
