I'm so excited!!!! Come see me when you get all your tests done Friday incase they kick me out to the hotel before you come back Saturday for your surgery. I will be the OTHER fat white girl ????. Just kiddin! I will text you a mug shot... I should probably take a pic when I wake up... It will probably be a more accurate description of what I will look like blasted out on post surgery pain meds.....half hanging out of a sexy surgery gown. (Note to self... Pack house coat)

You are going to do great! You deserve this and your beautiful babies will reap the life long benefits of a healthy happy mama! Prioritize you and your little chicks will line up and do the same.

PS... I'm writing letters to my herd too.

I'm getting stir crazy. I'm snowed in and even if I wasn't, I still don't have anywhere me to be since I've gotten everything taken care of.

Tick tock, tock tock......

Kids keep me pretty busy though, and they have another snow day tomorrow, so. They should go back Thursday and I'll have all day to chill with the two youngest kids and lay out their outfits for the week etc.

So excited.!

Me too! 2 days til I leave bit 3 until I'm sleeved.

Starting to get cold feet (ish) again though. I'm going but lord carry me because I'm getting scared. I want to mother my children ASAP. I don't want to be in the hospital for a long period of time or anything along those lines. I want to get sleeved, come home and be hunky dory.

Amytug,

I'm so excited for you...your time has come! You will do great. Just remember that the first few hours after surgery are tough, but it just keeps getting better and better. My surgery was less than a week ago and I am feeling great I'm sending good thoughts your way...

        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
