Zelda. You are June 9th right? Me too. My doc is only requiring one day of Clear Liquids for me for preop. He has different requirements if your bmi is over 40.

I'm ready to roll!

Well it's official my date is June 11th. I start all liquids next week. I was really hoping for an earlier date, but that's ok it will go by fast.

TLawre2 I am on June 10th! I am so excited. Do you have to do a liquid diet before surgery?

My surgery is June 4th . Starting my pre op diet on Wednesday. Getting very excited!

I started mine early on Monday. It is very hard when food is all around you! The shakes are satisfiying and filling but the mind wants more! That is the hardest to fight! All in all I am VERY excited! Nut and cardio clearence tomorrow! Recently had a stress test so I should be good there. Still smoke free and not missing them too much. My feet and knees are aching right now so walking is tough right now. Hoping when some of this weight is gone it will get better and I can be active again!

So want to ride bikes with my granddaughters and run with my grandsons! 2 weeks to go!YAY!

      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. 🤞
