My date is March 4th. If there is a cancellation it could be moved up to Feb18th, but I would need to know by the end of the week so I can start the pre op diet on the 4th.

Hey everyone, I'm new to this. I'm being sleeved March 19th at 5"2 and weighing around 90kg. Had band a couple of years ago but after 3 months my stomach slipped up over the band (might I add I had had no complications and everything was going perfect before this) and had to have emergency surgery and get it removed. 2 years later and around 10-12kg heavier I now have the courage to join all the sleevers out there. Got to admit I am really nervous seen as things didn't work out to well for me with the band. By the way I live in Western Australia :)

You can do it! Check out my tickers below, I've been on 800 calories a day since Dec3rd and loving it.. I haven't always been perfect, but it's definitely giving me the confidence to know that I can be successful with the sleeve. It's been a nice way to help me prepare mentally.. and of course I've lost quite a lot of weight! Best of luck! See you on the loser's bench!

      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. 🤞
