It is a CLOSED group now, but we were going to switch it to Secret once everyone joined. There are about 25 people in now.

I think you would be the first sleever. If I remember correctly, the next one is July 7th.

I just check my form and the thing says that Monday is actually June 30th. BUT, I won't actually be out of the hospital until July so does that work?

I want to join too. Just in case you don't know, I went to the gastric sleeve FB page. Guess I was stupid. I had NO idea that when I posted on it that my friends on FB could see it. I guess I thought since it didn't show on my page nobody would know. I put that my surgery was on July 16th and my EX's cousin saw it. Dang...nothing is private, I really should have known that. Lesson learned.

Oh, SherB, that sucks!!! Don't worry, I did the same thing when my doc put me on phentermine. I laugh about it now but that's why I wanted to make sure this one wasn't going to show up. hehehe pretty silly, but I still want to keep it private except for my immediate family.

I should find out tomorrow if I'm in July.. This doesn't show to everyone on Facebook? I'm not trying to be secretive.. Close family and friends know, but I don't want to advertise it..

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
