One Week. One. Just one.



Recommended Posts

I don't think I have been this anxious/nervous/excited/terrified since my wedding. I fly out one week from today to San Diego. And my sleeve will be created on Saturday. The pre-op diet is going... well, it's going. MyFitnessPal keeps scolding me for not getting enough calories in each day! LOL

Anyone else just a week away?

I am so full of mixed emotions I cannot even articulate it! I tend to write novels when I make posts or blog... so I apologize in advance if I inundate this board with my observations and experiences. Then again... I may be too out of it to type LOL who knows.

One week. Amazing. It feels like just yesterday was November 11 when I decided this was my path and how far away 3 months felt. just wow.

I leave on Monday for San Diego. I just got home from my week at my client site. My box from Uninjury arrived and I started packing it for my trip. It is start to hit me that this is really going to happen. So, I know how you feel. I am pretty psyched and excited. I am more anxious about the post-experience with my hectic work / travel schedule. I will managed somehow.

YEEEESSSS!!!! I travel Sunday, February 3 to San Diego for surgery in Tijuana on Monday the 4th! Can't get past the feeling of anticipation - really looking forward to spending the remainder of my life as a normal sized person.

All the best to you as you count down this week! How is your pre-op diet going? I'm so pleasantly surprised that I am not starving and am losing weight. My 8 year old took my pre-surgery "fat" pictures this morning!

Thanks everyone!

HoosierGirl, pre op diet is going ok... MyFitnessPal is yelling at me that I am not getting enough calories! Lol that is a first. I have dropped more than ten lbs so far but I am not sure I am doing it "right". I have the pantry stocked with broth, Jello and the like, and the HMR orders are arriving soon! Best of luck to you!

SoCalDixieGal... Two weeks is when I started to think too much! I hope you are feeling pumped and confident. Your hoarder comment made me giggle. :)

      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. 🤞
