I got my date today! August 5th! Who's with me



Recommended Posts

Hi there, so I'm so excited to finally have my date scheduled and I'm looking for any buddies on that date or around that date. I have a great group of people that I took my insurance required classes with, but many of the people opted for RuNY as opposed to sleeve and I want to make contact with some people who will be going through something similar to me

My sister also had the sleeve done, but a few years ago. She lost well over 100 lbs and I hope that I can do as well as she did also!! I'm just so happy to finally be getting going with this. I had a pulmonary embolism earlier this year, so my wait has been longer than it should have been, but the doctor is all ready to let me go forward now!! What was hard was that my insurance required a 6 month class and all the people in the class became really close and we text everyday. I had to just sit and wait while they all got surgery done, but i know it was for a good reason...just soooo ready!!!!

      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.
