Starting on June 5th, my Dr. is putting me on a 800 calorie/day liquid diet. Basically, 5 Atkins shakes/day. :(

I'll be out of town the week before my surgery (6/18) and I just realized that, if I have to do a pre-op diet, it'll happen while I'm away from home. DUH me. Looks like I'll have to order some individual Protein Shake power just in case.

Me too I love my coffee:) So it will be hard to kick, but I think I could have a cup of Decaf with vanilla Protein Powder and the dietitian said it taste pretty good... So I'm a give that a try

I am so ready but sooooo scared at the same time. I have finally made the decision to take my life back! I star my pre-op on the 22nd, so I am in count down mode. I have already cut out Breakfast and only have a Protein Shake. so starting Monday I will cut more out so I don't go into shock.

      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. 🤞
