Since starting my 10 day pre-op diet I have been having some bizarre dreams. Just weird, random stuff. Makes no sense. At first they were nightmares but now have settled into the routine of bizarrely weird. Falling asleep takes forever also because my mind is racing 90 to nothing. But only when I'm trying to go to sleep. I swear I'm like an ADHD squirrel.

Can anyone relate? Or atleast shed some light.

I think it's normal. I went through the same and still am at almost two weeks out. Every night is full of several crazy dreams. I think it must also have a metabolic component to it.

I am always like an ADHD squirrel. I have had some funky dreams myself, I spent one whole night looking for my left shoe.

Lol, I.couldn't fall asleep till 5 am because my mind was racing so fast. When I finally did I dreamt about catching baby turtles for my mother in law to let loose in her kitche. She also lived in wal mart and ran a gymnastics studio, in Walmart. Wow! I mean, really!? Lol, the mind reels ( my mil has zero gymnastics qualities and hates walmart and turtles). For some reason every night there have been turtles in my dream. Always Water turtles. I love them & I have 2 pet Water turtles but that doesn't mean I want to dream about catching a billion of them.

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

      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
