Lucky you, I have to do it for 2 weeks. But it will all be worth it in the end. Good luck to you on your new journey.

Pre-made shakes...I like premier Protein shakes, I also eat sugar free pudding and Jello and Swanson's broth. I'm having the sleeve done and my Dr. want 2 weeks of a clear liquid diet. So no real food.

I'm not to fond of the premier Protein Shakes but I'm forcing myself to drink them...I'm so excited

Does anyone want to be surgery buddy? I'm having surgery on Nov 3rd in Washington, MO. I live in the St Charles area.

How'd your surgery go? Did Dr. Hawver do you surgery? She was my surgeon. I had surgery in July. I am down 70lb since surgery and 112 since February of this year.

      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.
