So I am 1 week pre-op and even though I have researched and have everything together and packed (yes I am one of those) I still don't know if I am ready the excitement has subsided and now nerves are kicking in

Please tell me i am not the only one that is all nerves

You are not alone. I will go through with this on 6/11 as I am counting on the huge majority of people who say they have no regrets and I plan to be one of them. I'm ready to take back my life.

Surgery in 4 days. The excitement has subsided a bit and I'm not nervous yet. I'll probably be nervous on surgery day. I haven't packed yet but there's not much I'm taking with me... a few electronic necessities, a pillow and toiletries. I'm wearing my pajamas to the hospital and will be wearing them home. I feel like I'm forgetting to do stuff but I have no idea what.

You will all do great. I went from super excited to super nervous. That only last for a second. My surgery was march 10 and I have no regrets. I'm doing things I have not done in years. So much energy. Life is good. I am already being referred to as thin!! Enjoy the ride!

Happy losing,

Mississippi girl

      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.
