Anyone For October?



Recommended Posts

I am the 29th too. I go I'm the 23rd for pre op education class with nurse practitioner and from there to the hospital to register and so forth. I guess Wednesday the 24th will start a liquid diet.

YEA!! Someone I can relate to!! Nice that you don't need to start your liquid diet till the 23! I started mine this past Monday. Going good so far!! I'm so ready for this surgery, food is not even an issue right now. Don't even want anything other than my liquid. (lost 6# so far)

Where are you from? I'm in Northern Wisconsin.

Nice to meet you,

Dawn

My surgery date is October 23. It's like one minute I feel super-excited and the next minute I'm scared to death! What an emotional roller coaster!

Hi Jackie! Nope, surgery is the 29th. On liquids this week, Monday starts the clear liquids. I'm counting down the days. Still excited, surprisingly content with the liquids.. NO cravings..yet. How are you doing? What are you eating now?

      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. 🤞

      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.
