Can you please add me to the list? March 14 :) can't wait! Nervous! Start a two week diet on march 1. The two week diet is for a study being conducted to see the amount of fat loss from the stomach area within the two weeks. To utilize the data for colon cancer operations. Just have to stay under 1000 calories for 14 days. :)

I feel bad. I haven't had to do any of the hoops that all of you have had to do to get your insurances to approve your surgery. I have not had to loose any weight, I was told not too. I've had no phyc eval, no limits on food intake.

Get a soda stream is soda but with very little carbonation or none depending how much you put in it.

I am worried about this too. I am a chugger and have not been able to stop. I know I will not be able to after but what if I forget!

I have been reading a ton about the EGD's that everyone seems to be having done. I am not required to do this and am a bit worried about it. Can someone explain why this is important? Thank you so much!

I was suppose to have my surgery this Monday.

Well I have a horrible sinus infection and strep throat UGH! So my surgery for Monday was canceled.

Now I have to wait to get it rescheduled again and because of work it won't e until layer on in March now.

I'm getting laid off in 2 weeks so I have to wait until after that to do my surgery. I had already done 1 week of a 2 week liquid diet so in a couple weeks I will have to start all over again.

I almost thought this was a sign and I told the dr that I no longer wanted the surgery. Then I realized how badly I wanted my life back so I decided I have it again. I think I was just an emotional wreck from not eating, getting sick and nervous about the surgery.

Stay strong everyone and good luck to you all. I'm glad to see the post ops are doing well and I will update you guys on my new surgery date when I get.

That 2 week liquid diet is no joke.

      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.
