My date is May 13th! I start the pre-op diet Monday....yikes! :o

I am starting my Pre-op tomorrow also. Have been trying to eat healthy the past few days. Feel I won't be able to eat as healthy today with Cinco d mayo but promise to be better than normal...

I'm excited to follow you and look forward to the mutual support. Is there a way to private message phone numbers so we can text?

Had my surgery May 2nd, tons of pain waking in recovery room, within 30 minutes of going to my room I was asking to get up to use restroom and go for walk, they let me but kept an eye on me. Guess normally it is 3-4 hours after getting in room that most people get up with lots of coaxing. Also they say must need a walker in the beginning, I just got up walked around the floor, then went back to the bed. Since I did things so early and so well and was as independent as I could be, went home the afternoon of the next day. Since I have been home I am almost off pain meds, still pretty painful to burp our cough though. My problem is can't find enough hours in the day to take in everything I am supposed to. It is painful to drink to much or too often.

May 20th, 15 days to go, seems like a long time. They have me on what they consider the fast track, 2 1/2 weeks of pre op education. Hoping I can lose the required 15 pounds by the 19th doing the shakes? Not too confident :(

      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. 🤞
