I can hardly get 2 shakes down, they make me sick. I am trying them today with unsweetened Almond milk. Hopefully this will make for a better day!!

You know what's good too? If your allowed Decaf coffee, mix the shake and coffee. Then it tastes kinda like a mocha

Okay, so the Dr upped my surgery date to the 25th....waaaaahhhh. :( . Ah well. That's not much farther off from my original date (20th), only 5 days more.......sigh. He had some family stuff to do apparently....... :huh: . I didn't push honestly, didn't want him to have daggers on the mind while doing my surgery! LOL.

July 8th. I hope the pre op diet doesn't kill my energy too much. I have a lot I want to do before surgery lays me up!

I have begun prepping myself by stopping coffee, tea and cutting down carbs. I have even started sipping my Water in hopes to make my preop easier. I start preop on the 1st shakes n sf Jello. My nutritionist recommends i stay away from clear broth because it can trigger hunger for solid food.

      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.
