I understand why you are scared. I think that everything is going to turn out ok. I would think that they wouldn't even attempt to put the same amount that they did the last time, so everything should be ok. I am crossing my fingers, praying...you get the idea.

I go in for my follow up on Thursday. I think my fill finally decided to really kick in this past weekend. I can still eat pretty much anything, but not nearly as much as I could eat last week.

I really wish that the junk food was harder to eat. It doesn't make sense that the food that is good for you is harder to eat than the junk.

Well my fill turned into an unfill today. I wasn't able to keep anything down yesterday or today so I had to go in and have some removed. I feel much better.

Carrie - I am glad you are feeling better. Being too tight sucks.

Slim - berry. i tried watermelon and berry and the berry was much more palatable.

I have been using Centrum adult chewables. They are a disgusting orange. It is hard to mask the taste of Vitamins.< /div>

I have been taking the kid's gummies vitamins at the adult dose. but they say these vitamins are better and they aren't too bad.

fill is still going ok. i feel more restriction but not TOO TIGHT so that is good.

I am glad that your fill is doing ok. You and Carrie have been through quite a bit with your fills.

I will have try those vitamins. I remember them giving me a sample of them at the pre-op class.

I wish I had been able to find the generic ones. At the time that I bought them, my wallyworld didn't have the generic kind. Thankfully, I had a $3 coupon for the big bottle of Centrum.< /p>

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

      2. 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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
