Pre-Op: I'm Having A Bad Day :(



Recommended Posts

So today started with me sleeping in and missing the bus.

so I grabbed an Optifast bar and got on the next bus which almost drove past me cos a rubbish truck was in the bus stop. I then got on the bus and found my pre-paid bus card had no money on it. there goes all my change.

So I chew on my optifast bar, check my bank account to find I havent been paid.

RAGE

so distracted I press the buzzer early and have to get off the bus in a haze of rage and being amd at myself for pressing the buzzer

to find that my 1 real meal for the day - grilled snapper, spinach salad with Jalapenos, spring onions, Tomato and lemon, has been left on the bus in my pretty strawberry shaped bento box.

FUCK

get to work, find out I will have to take my recovery time from the operation as leave without pay.

double fuck

Then there was morning tea - Angel food cake, crackers and dips, chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter-butter cream icing, crackers and dips and lots of delicious stuff... which I avoided and ate a single strawberry.

and now I have to go question a contractor who may or may not have been over charging us for hours.

I wanna cry

Any hope to recover your bento box? I was thinking of using one of those to pack lunch...neat idea. Hope today goes better for you.

My friend heard I lost it and went and got me a new one - he's so sweet! it really perked me up. What I really love about bento boxes is that they have sections and compartments - definately worth the (very minimal) investment.

Thanks everyone for the kind words, I really needed the support yesterday. I think I hit the point where my body is switching processes so was quite an emotional baggage before all the crap was dumped on 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. 🤞

      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.
