Yasmina I love your name! It is arabic right, is that what your origin is? I named my daughter Aneesa which is arabic and I loved the meaning of the name, it means "loyal friend".

Thanks guys for the support, This is pretty much the only place I get it.

Carmen thinks if he aviods talking about it , my surgery date will come and go and I will not have it done. I have brought it up at least 5 times in the past week since the date was set, " he can't talk about it because it stresses him out" Well havingmore then one ass stress me out !

Thank you about the name, My first name is actually Vian, only a few people call me that. I am Ukrannian, kind of a Arabic want a be. I have been studying the language and dance ( Belly dance for several years. That is when I decided to go by my middle name. Love the culture, and of course the dark men LOL.

I love your daughter's name Aneesa, very pretty ! :confused:

I love to Belly Dance ,the music the movements the was you learn to isolate muscles, it is great. We have a troupe and we dance 5 nights a week. Every three months we travel to Toronto to perfect our technique . That is one of the main reasons while we are going to Egypt. For the dance ? costumes.

Yes mandi , I cook for my dog. I don't have children so she is like my child who I have turned into a spoiled princeness. I live in Thunder Bay, amd it gets pretty cold, well she will not go pee outside without sweater, jacket and boots. I do thie because I do not want pee inside ! LOL At 6 a.m. it really sucks ! :notagree

Tres Chic,

Are you flying in to the clinic? or are you from the Toronto area ?

I live in Toronto, so thankfully, there's no travelling. I have to say, I'm getting pretty nervous now. I'm sleeping about 4 hours a night and having some epic dreams! How about you?

I got a call fro TLBC and they moved my surgery up from 12.30 to 11.00. Guess they don't want to miss lunch !

I will now have less time to be stressed over it, as I arrive in Toronto at 8a.m. and by the time I get down town and check into the hotel, it will be time to go there. OH MY GOD. There has got to be drugs for this ! LOL

Carmen gets that pleasue, but princess Breana gets pissy when I go away; and like any good Bision Frise holds a big grudge. Will not go outside unless fully clothed ( jacket sweater, boots ) and even then ,may not pee outside if you are rushing her. She sits her little bum down and will do anything until back inside where she will pee on the nearest throw rug. Have a great weekend Carmen ! LOL

I was told that Vitamin E was the best thing to put on the scar to help it heal . How long do I have to wait to do this ?

I was told to wait ten days before I take off the strips.

I just don't want an infection ! ;)

wait until the scabs from the incisions are healed over before adding anything to it. Should be somwhere in the 10 to14 days range. Good to know you are healing bell.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
