Calling all May 7th sleevers!



Recommended Posts

Day 2 of liquid diet, so far so good. I am really starting to get nervous day by day. My family is keeping me motivated but I'm truly scared but I'm ready.

Today is my pre-op appt and class. Trying to write down questions or concerns I may have, but I'm having a hard time thinking. Lol! Excited and scared at the same time.

I am May 7th also at the Cleveland Clinic. Day 2 of Pre-Op liquid diet. This sucks. :)

First day was all Atkins Advantage shakes. Today has been all slim-fast shakes. Tomorrow trying the Boost shakes. This really really really really sucks doing the liquid diet.< /p>

The EGD was easy. I was just droggy the rest of the day.

3rd day of pre-op liquid diet, doing okay. I just keep telling myself that I have to do it because I need this surgery and I need no problems.

So we can do it peeps, we have to do it!

I have to have to get serious!!! I dont want to be a Sleeve failure!!

      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.
