I didn't have my surgery in Memphis, but I'm not far from you. I'm in Oxford, MS...about an hour south of you. I was sleeved here by Dr. Michael King 5 days ago on 07/03/13.

Dr King in Oxford is doing my surgery. I live in Walls, MS in Desoto County. I'm 5 miles from Memphis. Updates ladies? My surgery is Dec 16. Nervous and excited. Pre-op diet is killing me.

Hi Amanda! I'm not that close to Memphis, Little Rock area, but I haven't seen that many folks from our area on here. I'm scheduled for 12-16. Working on day 6 of my two week full liquid diet. Good luck on your adventure!

Anyone recently had surgery in the Memphis area? My surgery was with Dr. Woodman on May 13th.

Hi!!! What did you think about Dr. Woodman? How was the pre-op, surgery, and post-op? I am researching now and I will be attending a seminar next month. Any information or advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

      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.
