Good luck to everyone! This is really happening, guys, it's OUR month!!! Ahhhh!!! I go back and forth, back and forth on emotions. Happy, excited, anxious, terrified, depressed... it's such a ride. 10 more days for me!

Me, too! the emotions are crazy. There are sure a lot of us having surgery on the 10th--I'm so thankful for this support group. Hang in there everyone--we can do this!

Started my liquid diet nov 16... 17 days no cheating I've honestly amazed myself didn't think I could do it..... 7 more days

Me too! It's been a full 2 weeks and no cheating! My dietician threatened to cancel my surgery if I aimed weight so that was enough for me...I guess the 20 lb loss is okay too :)

Praying for each and every one of those having Surgery this week. (I hope I am one of you but that remains to be seen) Regardless I am with each one of you in thought and spirit. I pray for uneventful surgeries and quick and easy recoveries.

Hugs to you all. You got this.

I have been looking for this thread under the "Monthly Groups>2012>December" thread. There was only one post there and then I added mine last week-I didn't know there was an active thread for December. I wonder if anyone else is looking there? Or am I missing something? Not sure--I'm new to this.

Also, I read that a new thread had been started for December post-op. Maybe that's in the post-op forum, I didn't look but will.

Anyway, I wonder if the monthly place would be a good place to put the threads so that we can easily find December 2012 by looking there. I'm not sure how or if it could/should be changed and/or copied--just a thought for other lost souls looking for the December 2012 group.

Good luck everyone!

Has anyone on the liquid diet cheated? I'm having such a hard time with this! I just ate some Soup but I didn't strain it... I ate everything in it. I'm so horrible!!

I cheated. Today I had a slice of cheese. Yesterday I had a small piece of chicken from panda express and a couple days ago I had 3 frys. I'm so bad! :-(

Good luck to everyone this week. We have one week to go. I know being the spouse is not the same as the patient but I really am the only support team my husband has and this is slot of responsibility for one person to have so I will be looking to y'all. I hope you don't get tired of me. We just moved to hot springs, ar and I have no one here to help or even to talk to.

      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.
