You'll be fine! Just take it a moment, hour and day at a time. Try not to think about the next 17 days today, it can be overwhelming. So, you slipped, don't bury yourself in guilt! Tomorrow is another day, another chance to move forward!

Be Encouraged! YOU CAN DO THIS! :rolleyes:

Great advice....my surgery is 12/5/13 and the liquid diet has been a struggle but I have not put anymore weight on since the 12 I dropped. I'm sitting here making a grocery list at 1:45 am and watching YouTube videos. My nervous are setting in and I'm beginning to doubt that I can keep this up, ike everything else I've tried in the past. Going to pray and ask God to help me continue this journey without doubting the multiple abilities he has blessed me with. Venting.....always works! Good night all!

*12/5/13 : )

The first three days are the worst, but if you stick to the letter of the law, after day 3 it gets a lot easier. But cheating makes the whole 3-day thing start over, so don't even think about it. You got this!

Thanks, however; it been almost two weeks and my craving have not subsided! But I can say I've cheated and eat steamed broccoli. Everything has been healthy foods.

Well I'm only on day 1 right now , I'm definitely going to try and stick with this but I think my week one should be ok because I can still eat food but only at dinner , my week to I think will be the hardest with only being able to drink 5 shakes a day every 3 hours plus 64 oz of Fluid daily .

      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.
