Hello I'm scheduled for May 7th with Dr Lopez in Tijuana. The pre op diet has been a night mare leaving me feeling like a total failure having to quite smoking and a liquid diet has made me a complete grump.

I'm May 7 as well, and I've already gave fair warning on my grumpiness! No sugars no carbs, just a woman b on a mission, I told my daughter to steer clear!

I'm scheduled for surgery may 20th! Scared, and excited. I have a small scattered family so support is what I'm worried about. I know I'm going to need it. Best of health to all the May sleeves!

I'm having mine done on the 20th also! (So keep in touch.) Are there any local support groups that your doctor can recommend? We will all support you on here! :) Best of luck!

May 15th, Puget Sound surgery clinic isn't as strict as others. You are limited to 2 Protein drinks a day but must not eat more than 40 carbs a day. I just started today and no big deal.

      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.
