To All my 3/4 sleeves: we have six more days to go! I had a little melt down earlier. I was wondering what I was going to do without food but I realized that I won't be missing anything that I haven't already tasted before. I'm excited and scared. I just want these next 6 days to fly by

I am going for my 2nd visit with my surgeon in the morning. I have been on a liver detox diet for almost 9 days now. I see that some of you are already on liquid shakes, I am wondering why I was not put on shakes too. Maybe he will starting tomorrow since my surgery is March 11th. I had to call my family doctor up today, my surgeon's office called to tell me they did not send in all my pre-op test results and a medical clearance letter was not received either. What is really frustrating, I called my family doctor last Wednesday and told them all paperwork and test results needed to be faxed to my surgeon by Last Friday and apparently that did not happen. If my surgeon does not have it all by tomorrow I might have to have my surgery date changed until there is follow thru from my regular doctor. I am so mad right now, it just goes to show you that you need to be pro-active and make double sure there is follow thru from your regular doctor. I will let you know how my visit turns out. It has been a long road to just get here. Fingers crossed!!!

Hi I'm having my sleeve 8th March in Australia. Looking forward to it and like all if you I'm a bit scared. I have 48 kg to loose so I'm hoping doing the pre op the weight is coming off. I have no scales at home which is a good thing. Getting weighed on Thursday at the Surgeon appointment. ????

AHHH! I am having surgery next week. NEXT WEEK! I am going to have to admit I am a little on edge. I am stressed out due to the fact my husband has been laid off from work the past few months so it was a perfect opportunity to have the surgery so he could be home to help me with our kids and he just got called back and started today. I am having surgery on wed so he is taking wed, thurs, fri off along with the weekend. I am praying I will be up to taking my daughter to school monday and take care of my 2 year old all day. It's going to be rough!

        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
