I'm scheduled on Sept 9 provided my blood labs are all good. So happy to have found this site one late night. I know I'm not the only one even though it feels like it at times. I'm also more stressed about the pre-op then the surgery. I know what the end result is I want just have to get there. Good luck to everyone when ever your surgery is. I don't have to start my diet till Sunday, but I thought I'd better start a shake in the mornings just to remind myself how they taste. Luckily my Dr dietitian said the Protein Shake mix I had already had & used for a prior diet. She said it was fine. The biggest thing is to do your best to sticking to the guidelines of the diet. After the 4th day she says my body should submit to the diet & I should be fine. Whether or not everyone's different & time will tell. I just figure I will do my best to keep myself busy.

Again Good luck to everyone! This will be a great step to renewing our life. :)

I just got my labs bad yesterday. Luckily, mine are all normal. I don't have any co-morbidities, so may main focus right now is stop the smoking and pre-op diet.

I don't know if anyone is interested but there is a group on here called "September 2013 Sleevers"

it doesn't hurt I figure then we might be able to have a better understanding of everyone who is in Sept. I think it would be a great idea as our journey's move forward. :)

      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
