why do i still feel so sad.



Recommended Posts

why do I still feel this way, I feel sad, confused I come and read the post and pm some of you'll and feel better for that time, and then I start thinking of everything and I feel I don't know anything about the surgery, I have a guide book I read over and over and still feel like I don't know anything, I don't see my nut or my psych until after surgery and im waiting to find out if insurance will pay for it. so I have been buying Vitamins, Protein power and things like that for the first stage which I think its high protein full liquids after the hosp. i guess for two wks then soft and moist protein and what i had in the first stage.

im just not sure i got this right.

i have pm some of u and i want to say thanks, it does make me feel better but then the same feeling comes back. wonder why ?

i went out and bought vitamins, protein power, boxes of jell o and i have no surgery date, im just waiting to see if the insurance company will pay for it.

i just sit here reading all the post and my pms. and just thinking about it all day long and what i have to do or what i cant do.

ps. since my psych and nut clear me i been eating more and doing less shakes, i was told to stay the same, don't lose or gain, but i been eating more. now im afraid what if i gain weight by the time they call me in for pre op or what ever they do when the insurance says yes that they will pay for the surgery

Nancy, sounds like you need to get out and do a little walking and get some fresh air. It will make you feel better. Don't stress over this process, save your energy for positive behavior that makes positive changes in your life. You will be fine.

      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. 🤞
