Any September surgeries out there



Recommended Posts

Four days into the liquid pre-op diet, it's going pretty good! Enjoying an Isopure Protein Drink now so I know if I will like it after surgery. It's pretty good, I know they say your tastes change after surgery but if I know I like it before then I'm not as worried about lack of choice afterwords. Surgery still set for Sept 3rd, anyone else on liquids yet?

Hi,

My surgery is 9-3 too! I'm starting my liquid diet tomorrow. I still need to run out and get some stuff to eat for the week. I'm not looking forward to not eating food all week especially being diabetic. Where do you buy the isopure drink at?

My approval came in today, just submitted last Thursday and doctor's office called at 1:00 PM and said surgery is scheduled for 9/11/13 at 10:00 AM. Start liquid diet 9/2/13. Since I did the liquid diet with the band, won't mind it as remember how great I felt eliminating the carbs, didn't realize how sluggish I felt until I had to do that diet, don't know if was because I'm a diabetic also or if it is just natural. Anyway when I brought it up to the doctor he said it was because I wasn't eating any sugar or carbs. Don't know if I should actually believe that as he is the same doctor who told me he hasn't had a patient who had to have their band removed. I must have been his first in all the years he was doing bands. (I actually switched doctors because of the clinic staff). So surgery 9/11/13 an on to a healthier life.

      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. 🤞
