Part of my paperwork was an agreement for confidentiality on pricing so sorry, can't disclose my price.

Ditto. I emailed them and they were really fast at getting back with me. I had a call within 1 hour from Carolyn and they emailed me the prices.

Like SoCal states' we agreed not to disclose the price. It aapears you already received the pricing.

Sometimes they change... I wasn't aware that they don't want you discussing the price.

Well, I am on my layover in LAX. I called my credit card company lies letting them know I will be in Mexico. I also found out why my layover is so long, the 3 flights before mine have all been over booked.

 

I had a heck of time getting to sleep last night ... can you say excited, nervous, anxious.

 

And, not being able to eat in the airport has been a killer. I am hungry, and yes I have an injury shake. I sure can't wait until that hunger hormone has been removed from my body.

Mary, I know how you feel, how anyone could possibly sleep the night before is beyond me. In fact, my surgeon actually gave me a pill to help me sleep, lol. Best of luck to you, can't wait to hear how you are doing!

      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. 🤞
