I keep checking to see if I have a surgery date buddy and close but not quite. Today the 'light' went off and I realized that it's wishful thinking. My surgery date here in Canada is Thanksgiving Day in the states, lol. November 28th.. well I am very happy with it just the same :-)

Hello soonerorlater, and thanks for the information. I will find out everything on the 28 of Oct. Was Unjury Protein Drinks one of your options?

Yes it was one of my options. I know I looked it up but dont remember if it was too expensive for me. I bought one called Pure Protein Powder. It taste ok, havent tried any other ones yet so dont have much to compare to.

Hahaha awesome! Let the suffering begin I guess!

I hope I do alright on the liquid, that I'm not H-ANGRY all the time. The only part of surgery that worries me is the IV... Never had one and I have a phobia of people touching my veins and tendons so I'm thinking a needle being in there is gonna make me pass out/throw up.

That and my dad decided he wanted to be the one to come with me. Hopefully he doesn't need to help me go to the bathroom or witness me tripping over my own feet and rip my gown off... Cause if it would happen to anyone, it would be me hahaha.

I'm so jealous of you all!!! I will have my paperwork submitted to insurance before end of October, so the earliest I would be is Dec. sometime. I'm PRAYING they don't make me do the 6 month WL plan...

      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
