Respectfully said when u guys opt to use your private emails for questions and answers it leaves everyone else out of the loop whereas someone else reading the posts may have the same questions and the answers may be of benefit to everyone or at least more than one

I do understand sometimes there us a need to interact one on one but more frequently here I've noticed people just wanting email buddies whereas I thought that the premise of this was to be a GROUP forum. I hope that no one finds this offensive. And if so I beg your pardon in advance...

I agree with you panda. We are all here to help one another. That's what I thought this was about.

There is no list of tests needed. Every surgeon has different rules, ideas and tests he wants done. Some need X-rays, an EGD, chest X-ray, psychologist visits, etc. Some do not.

I guess that is what drives me the most crazy. No continuity. You can talk to 10 different surgeons and get 10 different opinions on everything from pre-op testing, to pre-op diets to post op diets. Sadly, the only one who will be able to tell you what tests you need beforehand is your surgeon.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      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.
