Good point! You can do this. Most surgeons expect some weight loss just to show adherence to the pre-op diet as well as the reduction of the size of the liver. My doc is stringent on this. If you don't show a loss between the pre-op visit (11 days prior) compared to day of surgery, he postpones. He's militant and I believe him! So far, I've been following the docs pre-op diet (no liquid it's 1500cal/day) for 5 days and lost 4 lbs. You can, too!! You've made it this far, don't let a few pounds stand in your way. :)

20th for me too! Only booked the op and flights on 9th (yesterday) so had that day as my last day of eat all you want food and started the pre-op diet today. As mine is gonna be a short pre-op I am having Optifast only, no food at all. I figured it'll be easier to go onto the clear fluids after only having the shakes and no food. Have done optifast before for 10 weeks and your hungar totally goes away after day 4, but getting to day 4 is bloody hard! Thats all they do over here anyway, the optifast, no food at all, it shrinks your liver and internal fat well.

Having my surgery in Mi Doctor Hospital by Dr Lopez, staying at the Marriott until Wed 27th. Hope to meet some of you there on our journey, good luck!

      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.

      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.
