You can do it!! A week isn't bad at all! The first 2-3 days will be the hardest, once you get through them you'll be fine! Just keep your eyes on the prize :)

I agree Kanesmom, you just have to fight thru those first few days...

I'm on my 2nd day. I feel blah...seriously sucks but is definitely necessary so if this is what I have to do I will do it even though it's making time go by EXTREMELY slow...

That's exactly how I feel. Like time is just slowly ticking by making this harder & much more stressful.

I'm on Day 3 as well. Was hungrier today but it wasn't that bad. The first two days I honestly thought "I cannot do this!" My head was killing me and I had the shakes so bad. I guess it was from withdrawals from good and all the crap I decided to eat the last week for my "food funeral". Maybe that wasn't such a great idea after all! ???? Anyway, after today was soooo much better, I think I can totally rock the next four days. Surgery is on March 7th and I'm stoked! Packing my bags, cleaning, and pre-cooking planned for tomorrow to be prepared. Good luck everyone!!

"Food Funeral" lmbo! that's hilarious!!! Hahaha i wish I would have thought about doing that & had full portions of my favorite meals for the last time!! My surgery date is also March 7th! So much going on the last few days that our surgery date will be here before we know it! Can't wait to get past the healing time & get back to normal life

      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.
