I had my gallbladder out years ago thankfully. Any other dates for June 9? I have pre op June 2. I was not told about a preop diet at all. I do are a Protein Shake every day for my lunch. I was traveling last week and drove through the night. I had 2 lg Dunkin Dounuts iced coffee with espresso... Mind you I don't drink coffee regularly. Have an iced coffee from home and I was afraid of giving it up . After all that coffee and driving... No taste for it now. I was at a Traders Joes and they had Water with get this... Cucumber and parsley... I never had parsley in m drink.. And it was REFRESHING .

More scared of not eating foods. Love my water!a d I'm down Four pounds... Wahoo!

There are a lot of June 9th dates :)

Hi everyone! I am new here and have been reading as much as I can about this procedure I am about to undertake! It is scary and exciting all at once! My surgery date is scheduled for June 4th and it can't come fast enough! I officially start my liquid diet on Wednesday, but I am trying to get a jump start today! It will consist of 2 shakes and a sensible meal. Today I cheated and ate some celery! I was 249 at my first consult appointment and I have gained about 7 pounds due to quitting smoking! I feel guilty, but my nutritionist said it was fine. But I beat myself up over it!, But I am still not smoking!

Good luck to everyone !

i'm having such a hard time motivating myself. When I went in for surgery on March 17th, I did great on the 2 week liver diet and I was excited about the surgery.

Now i start my 2 week liver diet again this Wednesday (two more days) and I' worried about it and i'm not excited this time. Maybe in the back of my mind I'm just thinking that something will go wrong and It won't happen again. ugh

Congrats on the not smoking!!! That is fabulous and will make a huge difference in your health :D I had a really high A1C and have 2 1/2 weeks to get it down alittle and I have gained about 4 pounds. I guess the high blood sugars were burning through the calories lol. So ready for this surgery and to kiss the diabetes good bye!!

      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.
