October Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

Aah! One week and I'll be loaded up in the car' date=' making the 3 hour trip to the hospital to get this new life on the way! I just can't believe the whole process took exactly 30 days from start to finish...its insane! I'm getting super anxious and almost tempted to take the rest of the week off work! Sending good ju ju to all those starting a new life this week! Your stories keep me motivated![/quote']

I am going in on the 8th as well...I am ready to get off the muscle milk..it has started leaving a thick coating in my mouth ( during the night) It is awful to wake up to. But anywho..I'm ready...nervous but ready! I have everything packed except for my IPad and chapstick. Good luck to all of you...will be checking posts to find out how everyone is doing. God Bless You!

10 days til GO TIME for me and counting. It's getting closer and closer! Good luck to everyone going today for surgery!!

**I had a small victory this morning, it's jeans day at work and I was going thru my closet and found a pair of jeans a size smaller than my usual, I tried them on for kicks and they fit! I wore them to work. Good way to start off my Friday.

I think it's cute and unless it's something horribly inappropriate, there's no such thing as not appropriate! Good luck with everything...

Well my revision surgery from band to by pass is 15th October 2012! Nearly done the first week of pre-op diet second time around seems a lot easier, but wasn't nervous at all last 3 ops yet really really nervous this time which is not like me at all. Anyone one else in the same boat as me?

      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. 🤞
