I leave tomorrow morning at 640am to fly to Puerto Vallarta. Surgery is on the 12th. I've been on Clear Liquids since yesterday morning. Super hungry and of course I have a headache, but I'm starting to get really excited. I'm a worrier so I'm convinced I'm going to have complications with my revision, but hoping for the best. I hope everyone else is doing well!!

Best of luck with your surgery. I'm a revision too, and had my surgery yesterday. You'll do fine, I'm surprised how well I'm doing. I think the band surgery was a lot worse.

December 18th in the house!!! Only required two do clear liquids pre surgery with an option to do more days. I may do 7 or 10. Scared out my mind!!!! Hoping to inspire my overweight hubby to do it too, but he is NOT amused!

Hey Tammy I am 12/18 too! If u don't mind I would like to keep in touch to see how you are doing

Its 2am. I'm scared and my stomach is a wreck just from the anxiety. I go in Tuesday at 6 am. Just afraid something will go wrong and my baby boys won't have their Mommy. I'm low risk, no health problems besides the weight. Still no rational discussion with myself seems to put me at ease. Especially when I look at their little faces. Feeling alone.

I feel the same way. I have three small kids, and my mind races sometimes with anxiety & worry. What it comes down to is that we never know when it's our time to go, but while we're here, we should do everything we can to make "our time to go" as far into the future as possible. Statistically, this surgery should increase your lifespan. Take comfort in that, and know that you're doing this for your childrens' future, and yours.

      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.
