I am excited but very nauseated and have had a headache for days..i can't believe surgery already here on Weds. It's been a long 6 months of waiting! I am in Arizona' date=' and have 4 weeks off work.[/quote']

Sorry to hear u haven't been feeling well...I am sure the stress and emotional roller coaster we are all on isn't helping. The nerves are starting to settle in...ugh. I just keep thinking of the absolute worst scenarios. Sure that is probably normal. I am in Utah and I am expected back on work on Monday!! I do not believe that is realistic but without short term disability insurance I have to do my best.

I'm actually feeling the same way today was actually the first day I really started to miss regular food. I'm thinking b/c of being around family and a lot of food today :(

What to do? Is this normal ?

Head hunger is killing me!! I went to Walmart tonight and it was like I was in a porn shop....such a guilty pleasure! Lol. I seriously could feel my mouth watering and I am sure I looked like a crazy person...staring intimately at all the food I couldn't have! Lol...oh well, I am sure this will pass!

      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.
