I am also having surgery on the 14th. I am totally freaking out. I am seeing a therapist to help me with emotional eating. Oh my heck. I am allowing myselt to feel my feelings. The fear has been crippling the last couple of days. Last night I read some of your posts. I felt so much better. I have been researching this for two years and felt like I was totally prepared. All of the sudden I am so nervous. It is weird that I am nervous about pre-op and barfing after surgery (I don't do well post anathesia). I am totally fine with everything else. I want to thank you guys for your posts. You have no idea how much it helped to know that some of you are nervous too.

I am having my surgery on the 14th as well. May I join you on the loser's bench?

Thanks so much for all your posts. I read this the other day and loved it.. Thought you might too

"The only things that stand between a person and what they want in life are the will to try it and the faith to believe it is possible!"

So excited to have such support and encouragement .!!! Day 5 of preop, just waiting for the day!

Pre-op diet killed me today!! I was starved all day... Caffeine headache withdrawal on top... :(

But... Staying strong.... Tomorrow's gotta be better!

Thanks for the nice words HappyGirl .... And I can totally relate Kat...

How's the low carb pre-op going green eyed girl?

It's great we have a diverse group getting sleeved all over the place on the same day.... So nervous and excited.... I have been quite emotional ( which isn't like me) at the thought of the post op negatives, but also in a good way also thinking this light finally be the tool that helps me get to a healthy weight!

Hope you all had a great day...

Rhonda

      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.
