Or what brand are you drinking?

I ordered the fuzzy navel from nectar, its really good. I ordered from www.bariatricadvantage.com I want to say around 30?

I am scheduled for March 19th. I am praying for approval..doc office inked me in to get me on his calendar. Just have to be approved...got a cryptic letter from Cigna today saying stuff was missing...hopefully this will pass. I am so sick of doc appts and will be so defeated if I went through all of this and get no approval....

Prayers for each other, friends. Best of luck to you all!

Dr. Office called and bumped me up from the 6th to the 4th. It's only a couple days but it kinda threw me for a loop. Was able to arrange work and kids schedule but I think mentally it made things feel alot more rushed then they already were. Oh well, just go with the flow.

I'm not nervous yet. I'm super excited. I think the nervousness will kick in by next week. The support on this site is awesome. I'm glad to be a part of it.

      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.
