Alrite now coming rite along, u r rite there, once u meet with the surgeon it seems like thats the last straw b4 approval.. Y don't u start with just walking around the block & increase as time goes on.. I say that so that it will become normal routine & wont b or seem so hard once u cross over...

Im trying, last week was my first wk walking. I did 4 days rangin from 30- 50 mins... Felt good afterwards tho.. See my NUT on the 18th..

My psych eval was a hour long. I was really nervous be cause i felt I was on display but I was as honest as I could b & it turn out fine.. (Guess im not as crazy as I thought) lol

So good so far...

I was actually afraid to do my psych eval because of a lady in my pre op class... She said he would not approve her for surgery and that she needed 5 more sessions with him . But when I got there, he asked a bunch of questions concerning my kids, parents & marriage . Then when I would try to answer his questions he would cut me off... Every time I spoke he cut me off. So after a while I said to myself just shut up or I'll have to come back for 5 sessions too... I got approved !!! Then he says I'm here if you need me... My reply was ill see you in the halls.

I thought you were going to say you'd see him in hell LOL

Did he specialize in WLS, obesity, etc? Mine specializes in WLS...She gave me some helpful information.....I would definintely see her if I needed support after surgery.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

        LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
