I've been waiting for this day for 2 years now. I have less than 24 hours before my life changes. I've been told by everyone that I won't regret it, but I'm SOOOO Nervous! Is this normal?

Yep!!! Totally normal! I actually almost had a panic attack right before they started to wheel me back, but the anesthesiologist saw it coming, when no one else did, and very covertly gave me meds to knock me out before I ever left pre-op.

I never had the chance to thank him, but he saved me from my self.

I won't lie, there were some moments when I truly wondered what I had done, and began to regret, but ultimately those all faded and I will never regret this decision again.

Good luck girl! Work the program and it will work for you!!

It's very normal! I'm 5 days post op and I was very scared. My doc had then give me some Meds before I was taken into the or to calm me and I do not recall anything after that. It took about a second and my husband said I was sleeping. It was for the best when I woke up I was in ICU and my nurse, doc, and husband were there. Said everything went perfect! Then I woke up next when they had me start to walk about four hours later. I just remember the Cotten swabs and chap stick were my BFF the first 24 hours. You are going to do amazing!! Just say a prayer and enjoy the new healthy you. Everyday has a new challenge, but I am starting to feel better. Good luck!!

      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.
