Got my date today Surgery date is 2/13 pre op testing on the 12th. Start pelre op diet 2/3. Now I'm nervous.

I start my pre-op diet the 4th but my surgery isn't until the 18th. Try and focus on all of the things you're gonna be able to do and accomplish. How healthy you're gonna be. Let the excitement in.

Holy crap is right! I met my surgeon Jan. 13. On Jan. 14 his office called me to offer a date of Feb. 3 (due to a cancellation). Before I could even think I found myself accepting. Jan. 21 I had my pre-op appt. with the surgeon, post-op diet coordinator, anesthesiologist, hospital pre-admittance person and the insurance coordinator. What a whirlwind! I lost the few pre-op pounds the surgeon required by the pre-op date. I was really lucky he didn't ask me to lose more. I need to arrive at 5:45 a.m. to prep. for surgery -- OMG! I am NOT a morning person!! Hey, at least the surgeon will be fresh and well rested -- even if I don't sleep the night before, right?! HA ha ha. 11 days and counting...Wish me luck, and the same to each of you.

I have the exact date!! Im freaking out lol how are u doing?? We should talk!

Dr Scott did my sleeve on Jan 22. Everyone at Floyd treated me really well.

The shakes taste good, but I never want to see a chocolate or strawberry shake again!

I went home the afternoon on the day after surgery.

You just put a big smile on my face. I have had a great experience with Dr. Scott and his staff thus far, but this is my life. It helps to here a successful ending from someone who had surgery with Dr. Scott.

Thank you for this awesome feeling. How is post opt? Do you attend the support groups? Do you have a weight loss buddy?

Postoperative kinda sucks, but the medications make it bearable.

I haven't been to the support group yet.

Don't have a weight loss buddy yet either.

I am in Adairsville.

I'm in Dallas. How far is Adairsville from Rome. The support groups are great. They are on the first Monday of each month.

We can be phone and chat buddies if you like. The journey thus far has been interesting. Lol.

      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.
