Well i would start by buying or checking out the book weight loss surgery for dummies it is a great book full of information. Also your surgeon an or hospital should give u a guide of what to expect and what you will or will not be able to eat. And finally believe me after surgery even if you wanted to u can not over eat! Now it is difficult because u so not have the tool once you do then it really is your mind set that meeds to change. That is why the best thing is to research and read as much as u can behore hand!

There is some definate merit in drinking more fluids regularly. Start drinking regularly thru the day so that you will be used to drinking fluids all day long. Remember to be drinking your Protein Shakes. get in that habit right now =)

I just wish it would get here because it is hard to do this this way. I wish I could only eat a little bit I start but then I go back to the old me I want to change but I am not sure how to.

My insurance made me do 6 months with a nutritionist and that helped big time. I eat 1/3 of what I used to before.

      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. 🤞
