I am feeling much better! I had a lot of gas pain but that is gone now. Just some soreness around my incisions. I'm trying to work my way up to walking longer' date=' but I start feeling a little faint. I think it's lack of calories due to the Clear Liquids. I had my one week follow up today and have been released to soft foods so I just made my grocery list lol. I have lost 13lbs since surgery so I am very happy![/quote']

That's good. I'm sure when you start eating you will feel a lot better, and have at least a little more energy hopefully. Dang 13 lbs that's great! I'm happy for you keep it up. I'm glad your doing good and its good to know your very happy. You made a good healthy life changing desistion. Best of luck in everything. Keep me posted on your wonderful new journey. Take care.

Yes Tuesday is coming fast. It is normal to be nervous, see it as taking a nap not dead. When you wake up you will be the same person but with a new tool. Take care don't lose faith God is always watching.

Good deal. I am starting a high Protein diet tomorrow one week in advance of my 3 month completion of the supervised diet. I really hope we can get the insurance approval quickly.

      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.

      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.
