Be strong and brave zoumommy and lulusmom! Sending healing thoughts your way!

To those in the L.A. area, my surgery was on 2/3 at Kaiser WLA. I'm sure Cedars-Sinai is top-notch too. One day soon we should get together and toast to our mutual success over some Isopure and water!! Ha ha!!

Hi I'm Chandler. I'm 17, female and a senior in high school and my surgery for the gastric sleeve is scheduled for next week during my February vacation!!! I don't have an exact date.. Either the Tuesday or Wednesday. Seeing as how I am currently sitting in the doctors office for my last consultation with the surgeon, (I need to get this date today) I thought it would be befitting to post here and possibly find out if any other teens were having the surgery this month. It would be nice to hear from someone who's going through it around the same time as me.

Hi Chandler! I'm not in high school, but I am going in for my surgery next Tuesday. I'm excited with a little bit of "scared" thrown in there. This is a great support group.

If you're looking to talk with just your own age group there is an age-specific forum. I do believe it's under "Gastric sleeve surgery support" Then "age-specific gastric sleeve". But you are more than welcome to post here and we'll offer you as much support as you can believe!! Lol

There are several of is that are next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and we just try and talk to one another and support one another the best we can along with everyone else.

So I'm at the hospital getting pre op lab work or whatever done. Appt was at 1.45, and I've had to be fasting for 14 hours. I'm about to stab someone if they don't hurry and get this crap done so I can go home and "eat"! Hahaha. Crabby patty is coming out.

Hahaha. As if being on the 'quids isn't rough enough. Our hospitals pavilion where we get our pre-op tests done just opened a subway in place of their cafe. Everywhere I went smelled like fresh baked bread. I wanted to smack someone.

      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.
