Was supposed to schedule today at the pre-op consult, but that got canceled due to the ice storm in Austin. 2 week delay might push me out of Feb.. :-(

Everything else is done...

I am calling Dr. Ortiz today to schedule for Feb. 21. I have been looking into this since October 2005. My insurance won't cover it, so we are headed to Mexico. I am very excited. My husband is VERY supportive. We are actually going to make a vacation out of it and meet his parents in San Diego and visit Sea World, they will watch our daughter for the 3 days I will be in Mexico.

I am planning on returning to work the following Monday. I'll let you all know tonight if I get the date I am shooting for. :clap2: :)

I see it Kedasmom!

Mom2Sassy: How exciting.. I wish my mom would just go to Mexico.. her insurance won't pay and I've been sending her all the links... If I could afford it I would just fly her down there and pay for it myself...

Just came in from my bus run. Someday soon It will be alot easier checking those seats, fitting down that isle:cheer2:. My pre-tests are Jan.29th. I have to miss the morning run. I'm so excited, even these tests are looking good to me. I had to see a physiologist for my phobia of needles. He says I'm ready. I've had a few needles,one in the elbow, an IV, and blood drawing (can't exactly practice this). But I want it so bad that if I'm not ready they'll (Doctors) have to deal with it, or me.

TracyinKS - thanks for adding me to the list

Tracy you will be fine! Just be honest in giving your answers. At my consult the psychologist wanted to know why i thought I was over wieght, how I thought the band would help me, and we talked about was with how to deal with my emotions after surgery since I will not be able to eat my emotions away anymore. It was pretty painless and kind of nice to get out any fears that I had. My whole session was talking though I did not have to take an assement. Don't think of it as so much of a test but more of an assessment of who you are.

      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.
