So today is finally here, I have to say that being checked in is a lot more reassuring than sitting st home thinking about it. Send me prayers please, still very Anxious x

You're right. Once I got to the hospital, I was weirdly calm about the whole thing. Sending postive thoughts your way. Good luck! :)

Sandi, sorry to hear about your cramps. How are ya doing now?

I think the pain killers they've given me work well for menstrual cramping but not so great for the hernia pain and gas -- every 4 hours seems like an eternity for me. The meds where off about an hour after I take them

Dilaudin, liquid Tylenol and Percocet in addition to their gas medicine and nausea Patches

I think the hernia is the worst cause my hospital roommate had the VSG as well by the same surgeon and she never complained -- she left the next morning and this is my 2nd night in hospital ..... Waiting patiently for my 2:50am dose, ugh

      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.
