HeyMichele, that is great! I'd love to be buddies if you are up for it. It seems that there are quite a few of us on the 7th. LESS than 2 weeks away now! :lol:

I start Wednesday with surgery date of 4/9. Not looking forward to the two week diet

I start my 2 week preop diet Wednesday as well with surgery on 4/9. I've been trying to have some of my favorite meals now (of course within moderation). I'm hoping the 2 weeks fly by because I am NOT too anxious to start the liquids!

I feel you! Here's to hoping those two weeks fly by! I'm here if you need any support! Have you gotten surgery jitters at all?

I still haven't received confirmation that I will get the surgery. I'm hoping to have a April date. Keeping my fingers crossed. I tried to get the surgery a few years ago and I was denied. So I'm being a little bit pessimistic.

Jfraz,

I understand the feeling. I am waiting for approval also it has been 14 days. I called and they said it was in processing. I keep thinking what if it is denied.. The waiting is so hard. I hope by next week it will be processed so I can set end of April surgery date.

I'm at what should be my final appt before submission for approval. In the waiting room and nervous. If everything goes as planned I'll be submitted to insurance by the end of this week. *fingers crossed^

Yeah, I am starting to get some jitters about it. I'll be sitting there thinking about it and my heart will start racing a little! I know that everything will be ok though!

How about you, any jitters or anything?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
