October Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, just checking in. Got to come home Wednesday morning. Been sooooo sore, but actually feeling a little better today. Have tried to walk around the house and have sat outside and enjoyed the pretty weather. Trying to sip as much as I can, but I just don't care for anything. Hubby says he's getting me out of the house tomorrow, he's been great thru all this.

Its official I'm having my surgery on the 30th. I've known that date for a while but didn't want to say cuz I wasn't sure it was going to happen. I had to find the money to pay for it cuz my insurance doesn't cover it. Well after a lot of work and worrying I found it and it is officially official. Pre op is on the 24th, EDG on the 25th, and surgery on the 30th. I'm so excited but the nerves or kicking in now.

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?

Welcome.

Dear God please give me strength!!! I really want to cry right now. My Husband made tacos for him and my Mom (who's here visiting and helping). This is just pure torcher. I just want to eat something so bad!!! I'm not even hungry. I don't know that I'm strong enough to make it some days.

Oh you are!! You will be able to have that again, just not now. My sister brought my husband and sons Casey's pizza tonight for supper and it was ruff but I made it. They felt so bad they were going to eat in in the garage but I said I can overcome!! I did!

Hey it's normal to get nervous' date=' 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!

      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.
