My Surgery Is Tomorrow!



Recommended Posts

I can't believe my day is nearly here! I'm trying not to worry too much! I have a wonderful, extremely experienced surgeon operating at a center of excellence! But I can't help but worry about those out of his control things! I keep consciously having to push them out of my head and keep my eye on the prize! My babies will have Momma around for a lot longer, I'll be able to chase them and play with them! I can't wait!!! I miss my old me! Will be glad to see this self conscious overweight boring dresser go! Bring on the tickling on the floor before bed and cute riding boots, I'm ready for the change! Wish me luck surgery'a not until 12:30 EST I'll try checking in either prior or after! See you on the bench!!!!

Whoops hit send...

Any who surgery went really well, tho I woke in recovery heaving non stop...so went the vicious cycle of me heaving, then getting knocked out by phenergan! They wouldn't allow my hubby back to recovery, so by the time I snapped out of he haze it was 715p,

      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. 🤞
