First off, thanks. I really wish I had some secrets to tell everyone. I followed my post op directions to a T. Regarding food for the first couple months. At 4 weeks post op I started hitting the gym. Did 30 minutes of elliptical then 60 min of weight lifting. I did low weights high reps. I still to this day don't lift heavy. I don't really have a specific diet that I follow. But example today I had a bowl of multigrain cherrios with 1% milk with a whole bannan in it. lunch I had a turkey burger in a carb balance wrap with hummus spread on it. dinner I had a piece of chicken. I had a handful of m&ms some pita chips with hummus throught the day as Snacks. Had about 4 cups coffee. Roughly 80 oz of Water. Today was a off day from the gym. For the most part this is what I usually eat on a normal basis. I've been on a 4 week stall. I've been floating around 250 - 253. If anyone has more specific questions for me I'm more than willing to share whatever I can to help.

      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.

      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.
