April,

You look like you have done great since your surgery. 11 lbs in about one week is AWESOME! I can't wait until Naomi gives me my surgery date. I have to call her back Friday (tomorrow). I will see you Saturday Jason!

Hello Everyone,

I have just received insurance approval and Dr. Scott Pennington atTrinitywill be doing my surgery. I don't have a date yet due to the fact Dr. Pennington has to talk with my oncologist in Houston, Texas. They are playing phone tag, but will hopefully talk on Monday. I'm very excited and nervous at the same time.

I just wanted to introduce myself and start this journey.

:biggrin:

Hey!

Dr. Lane did my surgury too. I was banded on 9/4/08. I wanted to ask you if you would consider him to be aggressive when it comes to fills or conservative? I have my first fill on 10/8/08.

Also, do you know if there is a support group in Baldwin County? I live in Fairhope.

Thanks,

Huntley

      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.
