I'm so excited/nervous I haven't slept in two days! So I just got off work, and getting ready to head to the airport. In just a few hours I'll be in TJ. I drank so much Water trying to stay ahead of hydration and hopefully getting a painless IV. I'll update as I can and hopefully everything goes smoothly.

Of course things have gone horribly wrong. I've missed my original flight.... I've been on standby for two flights now. The next flight still gets me there at a decent time. I haven't eaten since Saturday and nothing to drink. I feel like I'm going to cry any second. I knew things were going too smoothly. Murphy's Law in full effect.

Hang in there, take deep breaths it will all be fine. I know it's hard especially prob being hungry and thirsty. You are on your way to doing something so great for yourself!!!

So there was no way they could get me out tonight without jumping through crazy hoops. They wanted to charge me $1000 to change my flight. After crying and basically begging, I'm flying out tomorrow after jumping through different hoops. So tired and frustrated and hungry and thirsty... I got a hotel room and lots of fluids.

How did you miss your flight? I've never flown before and missing my flight worries me. I'll have to make sure I get there super early.

Ok I don't want to jinx it again. But I'm at the airport in the security line. Things should go well today and hope to see a few of you guys soon!

      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.
