Any September surgeries out there

Amanda - so sorry to hear you are not feeling well... I hope that changes soon...

but as for your bf, he needs to get his crap together. If he can't be supportive for a couple of weeks... well, he's a real piece of work. Tell him to put down the pizza and the video games, and help you the f out... and if he starts to complain, remind him that karma can be a real b... and that it is going to go both ways when he needs a little bit of help.

And if he is still a jerk, sign him up for an account here, and we can give him a little guidance on how to behave as a human being with a soul and a conscience

I'm really starting to worry because I'm not even 2 weeks out and can easily eat 4 oz of refried Beans and pureed chicken without feeling full or uncomfortable. And I snuck two bites of salad yesterday without any issues. It's going to be so hard for me to stick to this diet knowing that nothing is bothering my stomach at all

Probably bc the bean and pureed chicken are so liquid it moves quickly into your intestines. Maybe when you start eating solid food with bulk it will do it. If not then you will have to psych yourself into thinking that you will get full and you have to stop.

You can take some Tylenol.

      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.
