Somewhere in this thread, a couple of pages back, I think she posted a link. Also, today, she made a thread. Maybe search her profile and click on her 'theads' or do a search for Facebook (that's in the title).

I have 2 jobs. One job, a nanny, I only women 2 days a week and I will take one week off there.

The other job, I work at my computer 4 hours a night. I will be lucky to get 2 nights off starting postop day #3 or 4.

I'm not taking any time off. My job is not strenous or physically demanding. I plan on watching movies all shift with the residents.

My surgery is on Monday (12-16) and I plan to take that whole week off and work just half a day the following Monday. I'll be off Tues & Wed for Christmas. I have a desk job so I'm hoping this is plenty of time!

Hi all!

I WAS APPROVED BY INSURANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First submission, and it was approved a week later. I called every day! Now just waiting for the hospital scheduler to call and set up my surgery date, and get my pre-op labs taken care of! SO EXCITED TO BE SLEEVED IN 2013!

I'm still not sure of I'm a Nov or Dec sleeve date, but 90% sure Dec. I'm so excited. I've been considering WLS seriously for 8 years! I've tried all I could on my own, and I'm done struggling. It's time to live a new life. Glad to be here, and would love to be added to the Facebook group: lissavsg@gmail.com.

      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. 🤞
