This whole process has been REALLY fast for me. I decided to do the sleeve one day had an appt the next week and 2 weeks later I'm having surgery ( sept4th). Anyone else similar to me?

Same thing for me. the decision and the surgery is all happening in the space of about 6 weeks. I feel like if I don't commit to it right away, I won't do it.

Hi everyone I am new to this as well dde0a I am also a September sleever! Surgery date is September 18th with Kaiser Southbay Ca. My birthday is on September 29th so this is a great birthday present for me!!!!!!!! I don't have to do a 2 week liquid diet, but my Surgeon did ask that I loose 10 more lbs by the 12th of Sept when I have my last appt with the RN. So I was wondering if anyone can give me any tips on how to loose the 10lbs or more by then. I am so excited for my journey to a healthier me! dde04

Congratulations to EVERYONE of you.. We are almost there.

Hiii my fellow September sleevers! I will be sleeved on September 17. My liquid diet begins on September 3. I'm nervous and excited at the same time.

My liquid diet will consist of the following:

  • Water, crystal light, unsweetened tea
  • Broth, canned Tomato soup
  • Sugar-free popsicles
  • Protein shakes (Muscle Milk, InvisaWhey, Slimfast)

It's going to be an interesting 2 weeks, but I'm ready!

We will be sleeved the same day! Best of luck to you. When do you start your liquid diet? Maybe we can be support buddies. I know I'm going to need some support to get through two weeks of a liquid diet. I start mine on September 3.

September 17 for me!!! I am so excited. Best wishes to everyone. :)

      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
