I had a constant headache while on the two week preop diet and the first 4 days after surgery. It gets better. It's your body going through food withdrawal.

Luckily my plain was 2 shakes one for Breakfast and lunch and a high Protein LOW carb dinner. But it was still hard. I stayed home a lot. Had to constantly change the channel cus of damn food commercials. I took a lot of walks with my iPod. I did have a few days I fell off the wagon... But I got back on ASAP and remembered why I was doing this. I also was a lil scared I my doctor lol he had told me he could tell who followed the plan and who didn't and if he didn't think I was ready even on the day of surgery he wouldn't go through with it o_O good luck and STAY STRONG :-D

Today I'm feeling light headed enough so that I won't drive. My stomach keeps growling which doesn't help. I only have 2 days to surgery and have decided to stay home and relax.

      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. 🤞
