They are doing better than me too.. but doc says it's because my pouch is more sensitive than most since I had lap band removal a month ago

Y'all stay strong...you can & will defeat this fat...this surgery gives you more success than anything I ever dreamed. Don't get me wrong, you have to work hard (protein, ounces, exercise), but it just gives you that missing piece that we've all been searching for. It's awesome!

. Great news, glad you are doing well. From all the posts I've read, walking and raising your arms above your head seems to be everyone's suggestion for the gas.

Hmj- when is your surgery??

My surgery is February 4th. I went to see my pcp, nutrition and the psychiatrist yesterday! All went well and I'm clear for surgery. Registration on the 23rd!

I got to see my surgeon for a few mins yesterday and he remembered me and visited with me for a bit...that put me at ease a bit. :)

I just need to keep my fears in check !

Monday is coming fast! I have to check in at 11 am. This is getting so real. My mother in law will be staying with me because my husband is deployed right now but she is 3 1/3 years out from her bypass. I am sure that I'll be in good hands. Everyone is being super supportive.

      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.
