Hi Susan - I'm a May 12-er also. Good luck, from Dallas area.

Just had a pre-surgery pulmonary appointment. That spawned two more appointments....*sigh*....1 - A sleep study and 2 - some further breathing testing.

At least with all of the pre-op checks I feel like I will have been evaluated well prior to heading into surgery.

Hello, my surgery date is May 12. Just waiting on insurance approval.

Hello to you both - Susan and Sean. I'm a May 12th sleever too and am in the Dallas area. Surgeon is Dr. Kim, though. Just started the liquid diet today - no solids, just BariEssentials shakes and non-calorie liquids. The shakes are making me so queasy, though, and I'm constantly on the verge of being sick. I've done some research online and it seems as though most pre-surgery diets permit solids. Are y'all on pure liquids? Lauren

Today is the first day of my 3 week liquid diet. I'm tired and gassy. Is that normal on the first day?

I just started my liquid diet today and I'm also really tired. Not so much gassy as nauseated. Yuck! Hard to watch the kids eat pizza for dinner tonight, too!

I have my preop with my surgeon today and it's less than 2 weeks til surgery. Did that keep me away from Girl Scout Cookies? No it did not.

I have to say what makes me nervous is not the procedure itself but anticipating post op pain, post op feelings if deprivation and concerns that I won't be able to handle the post op diet. Anyone else feel like that?

Also I'm obsessing on Vitamins. What brand, how many milligrams, what type.... I wish I could be like you guys and clean house with anxiety instead of getting stuck on details.

If you did your research it was textbook for me almost everything everyone said about their post Op happened to me the pain, the fluids each day you feel better than the day before. I was so busy at work couldn't get my house cleaned now I'm working on the cleaning. Good luck to you God bless you!

      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.
