And I'm a nervous wreck. I can't stop shaking. Have to be to the hospital in exactly 4 hours (12:30 Texas time).... Please send peace and prayers my way.

We are driving to the hospital right now and it feels like the longest drive ever. But at the same time, I just want to freeze time. I have been waiting so long to change my life, but now I'm scared to death. Kissing my kids goodbye was the hardest part. Sigh....

Ok, enough with the nerves. I'm ready to rock this sleeve.

I was so scared when on hot mine down on Monday I always feared I wouldn't wake up but I had nothing to worry about silly nerves and now I feel so silly I was so scared about the whole thing. Mine went well I had two nights in hospital but the morphine was gooooooood! Second day was sore and third day better today will

Be my forth day and my gas is slowly going, that's the worst part. And the tummy grumble like things they hurt but bearable. Good luck miss let us know how ur going. sleeping on my back I hate but now I can kinda sleep on my side so I'm getting more sleep in.

Good luck xox

      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.
