Tomorrow is the big day!OMG



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow is the big day! Feeling excited, nervous, scared...the list goes on and on. I am ready for my metamorphosis and can not stop thinking about how much things will change for myself and my family. This is what I am looking forward to-

1. NO More CPAP! I hate that thing!

1.1- Being able to breathe better

2. Being in more control of my habits, giving up habits and having the sleeve as a tool to build healthier habits

3. Shopping in the regular section for clothing and not being forced to wear ugly prints because of my size

4. Wearing a swimsuit this summer

5. Having self-confidence

6. Living longer and more actively for my kids

7. Not being judged by my size (hopefully, I am sure this happens to everyone though :(

8. Starting on a fitness journey that will help me complete all of my goals

I want to thank everyone for their wisdom, support and friendship- You guys are amazing individuals:)

      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.
