If you don't get any answers here, I'd contact Lora or the office and ask if they can connect you with others in that time frame. They may not be on the boards or use another one. Would not want you to miss out on support if it's there for you!

<waving> Hi!

I'm in Florida, too, farther north in Jacksonville.

I'm not seeing Dr. Kelly, but rather Dr. Illan instead. I'll be there the week before you, but may see you in passing as I leave on 3/26. My surgery got moved from Mi Doctor to Hospital florence, which is the same hospital Dr. Kelly uses, I believe.

I'm sure Lora will be a great resource for you in finding buddies who may not frequent this board. There are some patients of my doctor who have started a private Facebook group. If there isn't something similar for Dr. Kelly, it could be a good tool for you to create to get to know other patients using him.

      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.
