You are so close to new beginnings. Good luck!

Snow Im scared. I know this is what I want. The weight will come if and a new me will emerge. I feel sad that I have to make such a drastic measure to lose weight. That I must literally make myself sick and deal with dehydration dumping syndrome nutrient defeincies to lose weight. The nutritionist finally got thru my head yesterday and I realized how small the new pouch will be and that it will be months before I eat veggies or chicken. My digestive system will become that of a baby. And any deviation from the program can not only make you vomit but cause extreme pain. Oh my God!!!!!! Im scare now cause this crap just got real.

Joan,

I keep having "oh crap" moments. It's not just about loosing weight. I realize my whole way of life will change. And that is scary. I have to take a deep breath and remember its about being healthier, being able to move, having energy to keep up with my son. Whew.... It's huge! Just know you are not alone. I feel the same way.. Excited, nervous, and scared all at he same time. This New Years will really be a whole new way of life. I'm counting on the folks in this support group to help during the days it seems impossible!

      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. 🤞
