2013 November Sleevers



Recommended Posts

Scheduled November 18th ( a week before my 28th Bday, Surgery will be a great way to start my 28th yr) , the last almost 6 months have gone by so fast. I remember going for consult and hating having to wait 6months. Got my instructions on my pre-op diet starting on Nov 4th....70g Protein, no more then 30 grams carbs, and 10 gram fat. So I already put my request to my mother for a end of October Thanksgiving dinner, I look forward to Turkey all year long and will be on liquids this year.

23 more days!!!! Can't wait. Starting to get nervous. Wish my husband was more supportive.

Oh that's unfortunate :/ I have told my whole immediate family, and two friends. The friends are pretty supportive and weirdly so is my grandma. My parents are starting to come around, my sister is the one that's most stubborn about it.

What is your husbands hang ups (Feel free to private message me if you prefer)? Maybe we can help you put his mind more at ease and get him on the sleeve bandwagon hehe

Good luck! I am going to change to RNY... I just think that is going to be a sure shot that I need.

Can you tell me what RNY is please? I've never heard of it.....

      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
