My surgery date is Dec 16th and I am really nervous about it.. I start my clear liquid diet Next Monday the 2nd so not looking forward to that but will do just as the Doctor says. I have never had surgery before and this is was is scaring me the most not knowing what to expect.

How are you doing? How is the diet going for you? Thinking and praying for you, it's going to be here before you know it!

My diet.. It's going =/ I'm just super nervous I can't wait to get this over with. The thing that gets to me the most.. Is the fact of losing my hair :(

LULU I feel the same way... My sister had this surgery in May and she had the most gorgeous thick hair and even though it's still beautiful it has definitely thinned out. I ALREADY have thin hair so I'm VERY nervous abt this... Gonna just try my hardest to get as much Protein as possible...

Well i am 3 days out from my surgery... The gas part is killing OMG it is wicked bad. I have not felt like drinking anything not to mention my protien drinks. Every time I drink something I can feel my stomach and my insides are grubbling and growling... I have been up walking and even been up most of today wrapping xmas gifts.. Does the gas part every go away?? At this point it feels like i will have this all the time.

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
