Thank you Jessica and Maria. Yes tomorrow is my big day. I can not wait and not one bit nervous. I can't wait to get this party started :P My current weight is 399. I lost 12 lbs with the liquid diet. But one thing that kinda upsets me is that the surgeon says my starting weight is 399. Wait what happen to the 91lbs I lost on my own. She said it doesn't count. Well, to me it does. So I will contiue to use 490 as my starting weight.

Congratulations on beating your pre-op weight goal! Losing over 90 pounds on your own is amazing in itself. You will do wonderful after surgery. Seems like you have great determination!

Surgey is 4 days away and for some reason I've started trying to bite my nails.( nervous habit) Has anyone else had some nervous habits rise to the surface? It is starting to freak me out just the fact of my brain saying, "No. You're not nervous." And my body saying, "The hell you're not." Help!

Being nervous is ok and completely normal. I think the majority of people get nervous before surgery. The one I had creep up was cleaning....the night before surgery! If you knew me, you'd know how ridiculous that was. I have so little "free" time with my family that I try to put my boys and husband before cleaning, so the fact that I was up until 1:30am cleaning was absurd especially when I had to get up at 4am to get to the hospital. I'm a stress eater and I guess since I couldn't eat, I cleaned! Hang in there. Your day is almost here!!

Surgery is a scary experience it's only natural to be nervous but all of you will do well. The first night was hell for me because of all the pressure from the gas. Just remind yourself you will get better soon. I had mine done Monday and now I feel great. I am only a little sore when I get gassy. I use the gas ex and then I'm good. I haven't felt this good in years. Seriously guys we are all pulling for you and you will be ok. My blood sugar is already in normal range and I can't say how much I've shrunk but there is a difference. I know you all will feel so much better after you have a few days to recover. Don't be nervous! Prayers for you all. I hope to all my post op buddies you are doing well too. So far this really has been the best choice I have made for my health.

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        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.

      3. buildabetteranna

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
