Surgery Dates for July



Recommended Posts

this is Wat I got to look forward to?? :(((

Well guess I'll find out this morning at my consult. :/

Well my shakes are terrible anyways, others have some that are bearable.

Also the hunger kind of goes away after a while, the first 2 days are the hardest but this morning it's been a lot better. Putting random things in my shakes to make them better (oatmeal, fruit, pudding mix)

And from what others have said it is worth it for the end result so I have just been reminding myself that in a year from now ill look back and laugh at what a baby I was about it lol

How is everyone doing with their preop diets? It's day 7 of my preop diet. So happy to be halfway through it! It's been tough but I feel I have turned a corner.

I'm on day 8. Have cheated a bit. Havent lost a lot of weight but am losing. Surgery is Tuesday (7/16). Not excited about it anymore. Nervous. Second guessing my decision to have the surgery. I'm sure its normal - just nerves. I'll be okay. Just want to get this over with. I'm pissed at myself for overeating and getting fat. I'm pissed that the food I love to eat I cant anymore or can't eat the volume that I'm used to. I hate I'm in this position in needing surgery because I couldnt control what I put in my mouth. I'm just pissed right now.

I'll be alright. I'm just having a massive pity party. I go on Clear Liquids tomorrow (day before surgery). I went to the gym this morning and will go tomorrow morning. Not much else to do but try to change my attitude.

Have a good day all. I'll be okay.

It is really hard to be on the liquid diet! And I hate that food is making my life so hard right now! And I used to have Sundays where I would make spaghetti and eat it all day and watch tv after work.

Yes this was comfortable but it needed to change. Like yesterday. Nobody said this would be easy right? Don't give up and keep fighting for your health and let the food go, it's not worth our worries to keep trying to fill our bodies with junk we don't need. I'm on day 5 right now and I've cheated on my liquid diet 3 times now. And not good ha I'm gonna eat a little piece of bread or anything, I took a trip to McDonald's, grazed at a BBQ yesterday, and had a little spaghetti. But I get up after each time and say that it's hard but it will be worth it. I made a shake today and it was a lot better than it has been. So I've been getting better at making them so they are filling and tasteful and not thinking of just cheating cause I can.

We can do this!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
