Please remember our forum rules. If you wish to have an argument with someone, take it somewhere else. Treat each other with respect, do not be rude, do not bash or name call one another.

This is the final warning.

I am pre-op and when I first read this post it scared the crap out of me but not so much that I would reconsider the surgery. I was skeptical of the post also only when she said no one should have this surgery. If it is true I can understand her feelings toward this surgery but the outcome her sister had is rare and will not happen to everyone. I am very nervous about surgery only because I hate not being in control of things ( like I am in control of my food intake right? lol) I hate being put under and am terrified I will not wake up. I saw the documentary on the Fitness channel called the 1000 pound mom or some similar title. The woman was young, in her early 30's and she was prob 900 lbs and underwent the GB and passed away 2 weeks later. Her poor heart was just so taxed from being at that weight she survived the surgery only to die of complications a few weeks later and she left 2 daughters.

My heart broke for that woman and her family. None of us are guaranteed tomorrow and I just hope and pray that God sees it fit to keep me in this world with my family and I have a 13 yr old who needs me but I put it like this, all of us on this Earth are here on a mission and when we have done what we are to do we will go home. I don't think my mission will be up on January 30 I hope my mission will be just beggining and I hope to be able to post a few hrs out of surgery to let you all know I made it to the other side and it can only get better from here on out.

Blessing and peace, Janice

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
