Hi everyone!!!!! My date has not yet been set. I see the Psych on Friday and then I need another sleep study because the last one was 6 years ago. After that I'm ready. I'm getting nervous now. Dr. Vollinger in Charlotte will be my surgeon. Did anyone else experience getting ready nervous by nit knowing what's next??

I sort of had the same experience... I was more anxious then nervous. The more appointments I went to the better I got. After that I was excited.

That doesn't mean I wasn't ever nervous! My date is March 26th and I did alot of back and forth with the idea of going through with it. My consult with my DR put my mind at ease and made me excited but it also blew my mind like "I'm doing this?!" It takes a bit to get used to the idea but eventually it'll get easier.

At the consult my doc told me to start scheduling my preop appointments and before I left her office they scheduled me with all of their appointments. So bascially I had appointments once a week for 2 months! It was an exciting ride for me.

Whatever your feeling is normal! Good luck to you!

I completely understand. It seems like every time I go to an appointment I end up walking out with two more appointments scheduled. I've got until August and I'm not really sure what all is left.

      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.
