I am glad to see everyone is doing ok that has had surgery so far. And I wish all those having surgery next week good luck too. I haven't really been responding very much even though I am reading daily everyones posts. I haven't been doing myfitnesspal the past few days either I am still trying to absorb that I was approved after

10 years waiting for this to happen. I still can't exhale thinking when is the shoe going to drop

10/17 was my surgery and my drain is 90% clear. Walking about every hour getting ready for some clear liquids. It's getting easier and easier! Best decision ever!

10/17 - 244#

Great to know lilmickey78, continue that walking, and keep us posted! I agree so far as well, BEST DECISION EVER! :)

Hey Finerwoman, NO PAIN, HOW COOL. Well I'm having some if I'm up on my feet too long, like cooking in the kitchen. Yesterday I was and it seemed as if the right side of my stomach was going to drop out, then the pain came. I went about 6 hrs with no pain meds but after that I quickly had to take it. I know it will get better so I'm taking it slow and I guess I need to make sure I'm not doing too much. O I got to check out some of your videos, I like but I will have to finish them today.

Have a good day!

Yes my date is October 29th & even though I've been on this journey for a while. It seem so surreal because its finally about to happen. I don't know why I'm getting a little nervous though is this normal for anyone else?

Hey it's normal to get nervous, I sure did. The closer it got the more nervous I became, but once I got their and was in the process I calmed down after waiting so long to go into surgery, so it gets better. Pray about though. So glad that you have a date though. Just stay posted here because there are plenty of support. Good day!

I know how you feel! I was sick until two days before but I was fine for surgery. Good luck and remember if you do have to move it, it will be for the best.

        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.

        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
