Received my surgery date today - September 20th with Dr. Keith Kim at Celebration Hospital in the Orlando, Florida area. Emotions are running the full gammut at the moment. I start my liquid diet on September 6th and I'm actually looking forward to it. Kind of crazy, huh? :)

I'm September 10th! I'm self-pay in Michigan. I have to loose 5lbs before surgery. Not sure how I'm gonna go about that just yet. I'm thinking' date=' lots of Water, (which I already drink a min of 128 oz of water a day so not sure how I can get in more) and 4 shakes a day[/quote']

Hey I'm in Michigan too! I'm getting sleeved on Sept 11th. Best wishes to u on ur journey!

Im September 16th....I havent been in hospital for 22 years to the date and that was for the birth of my twin boys who were born 09/16/91.

This surgery will also be a life changing experience for me!!

Yaye. I have never been under the knife so... This will be my first major hospital procedure. I use to be nervous but Im so ready for change and I'm looking forward to this. I'm hoping I will be scheduled for the last week of September or early October. Can't wait.

I had to do more labs yesterday, potassium was low, thankfully it went up.. Although the levels were not delaying my surgery. Surgery 9/16! Now waiting for my cholesterol levels.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
