May 16 Sleevers? Anyone else's surgery that day?



Recommended Posts

Only 4 more days till surgery!!! Pre-op diet is going very well. Thank goodness for Ensure High Protein Milk chocolate shakes. Drinking those has been like drinking the nicest, thickest chocolate milk EVER!!! No problems following the rules. So anxious to have the surgery over with. I usually don't get nervous about things like this as I've had many surgeries, but the worry in my family is causing me extra stress. They are strong Christians and I know they will be praying very hard for me and my safety, and I'm so thankful for that. But I want to remind them to EITHER WORRY OR PRAY....DON'T DO BOTH. Thanks for listening. Let me know if anyone else is being sleeved this Friday. I want to keep in touch and follow your progress! Thanks so much!

I agree, good luck. My surgery is tomorrow. I have to be at the hospital at 10:30. It's kind of strange. I'm not real excited or nervous yet. I'm sure it will hit me tomorrow when I get there.

My surgery is on the 17th. I'm so excited and scared. The whole "what if it doesn't work for me". Actually petrified!

      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. 🤞
