went to my nutrition class and to my pre op surgeon visit today. at first the nurse said that my eeg had some irregular t waves or something and it might delay my surgery. but when i mentioned it to the surgeon he said all was fine and that it was fine there was probably just one of the little sticky things not attached right... so everything is a go for Aug 3 can't wait.

Well I don't have to do an all liquid diet. My diet I can eat 3oz portions of lean meat, cottage cheese, yogurt, Protein shakes, small salads, and vegetables but all measure out and no more then 600-800 calories a day lol

im kind of jealous now..lol

Well I'm surprised that I don't have to do an all liquid diet but what they told me is that the diet that I'll be on for 2 weeks does the same exact thing that an all liquid diet does. I guess I'm happy that I can eat but I really thought that I'd also have to do an all liquid diet. I'm impatiently waiting for friday to get here lol that's the sad thing. I just want my surgery done and over with already so my anxiety level can go down lol

I couldn't agree with you more. I want to get it over with so i can move forward and not have to think about the what ifs and all that stuff. just wanna wake up on the 3rd after my surgery see my two daughters and know i made the right decision.

      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.
