Yes this liquid diet is getting old. I have been on it over 2 wks and my Surg is now the 26th..... The docs office said they would like me to stay on it until then. My final pre-op appt is on the 22nd. The boost shakes and Vitamin Water and reg water is getting old.

Monken and I have a doc that wont let us eat yummy things like juice, potatoes or cereals......nothing but lean Proteins for the first 75% of weight loss. Fun fun fun.....but I guess that is motivation enough to get there I guess.....then we get veggies back right....woohoo....I'm going to miss artichokes and asparagus and oh so many things.

So frustrated.

My surgeon has had to pass me off to another Surgeon. And I'm supposed to have my surgery next Friday.

Now I need to meet with the new surgeon, and I have no idea if I am going to keep my surgery date or not.

Unfortunately I am out of the country on business so will have to wait till Monday to see the new guy.

Which is stressful. How am I supposed to start my per-op liquid diet this Wednesday when I don't even know when my surgery date will be.

I cannot even explain my frustration it's that huge!

There was issues between the hospital and the medical aid/insurance.

So have to change hospitals and surgeons. Hopefully it will be the 19th now, but will have to wait and see. Meeting new Surgeon on the 11th then I will know more after that.

      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.
