Have to in tomorrow morning at 7am for the scope due to the reflux I have been having.

I downloaded the WLS for dummies and they said that if you have an ulcer they can treat which can be 6-12 weeks. :-(. Not wanting to put it off any longer.

I also was unaware of it and did not as the sergeon about it. Has anyone else experiencd that ? Or had to wait due to a abnormal scope?

We discovered I have a hiatal hernia during my egd, but I haven't have any problems out of it. I didn't even know it was there.

I love my doctors office!

My nutritionist appointment was not until July 27.

I called to inquire on possible surgery date and if the insurance needs preautorization.

She said I could get a surgery date of Aug 3! :) BUT I have grad school orientation that day. :(

She did however say I'll tell you a secret the nutritionist had a cancelation for This Thursday so you may be able to get in sooner.

I called an she did I have my appointment for this Thursday!!!!!

She also gave me a tentative surgery for the week of Aug 13!!!

Four weeks from now!

Does the anxiety start now?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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
