Agreed! I am so ready to just get this done already! I have been researching/planning/counting the days for over a year...let's do this already!

Started my pre-op today. That's not a lot of fun, knew this would be the hard part, but it's not too bad. This time next week, we'll be DONE with surgery!! :D

Sooo....since we still have 6 days of fabulous pre op diets to survive, I'd like to focus on some of the NSVs that we're looking forward to. I know we all have several we could list, so let's share what you're excited about.

Me? I can't wait to wear a pair of jeans (or anything for that matter) without my "front a**" hanging out! (I have a lot of extra skin from my pregnancies/ c-sections, and that coupled with carrying around extra fat...gives me a big pooch in front...like an a** in front. HATE it!!!) I wanna feel good and look good in my clothes!

What's yours??

I think I might have mentioned this before. I am so SO looking forward to go "shopping" in my huge own closet for all the sizes 12 down to 8 I still have from 5 years ago :)

And this other thing is going for a swim in public without feeling totally insecure !!!!

There are several things that I'm looking forward to-- probably the biggest is to get rid of the power of fear- fear to try new things- fear in how I look to others- fear of how I look in clothes- fear of how I look without clothes on- fear of trying yoga, or jogging because my mind erases the can do it before I even try.

I'm so excited to becoming a better me!!

On the downside- I'm never sick, and I'm now starting on a Zpack today. I can't believe the timing- I should be home in bed, but that wouldn't cut it at my job since I'm taking a bunch of time off for surgery!

Good luck and I'm so excited for all of us!

I am so ready to have this done and not be so nervous. I am excited at the same time for the new me.

I am looking forward to wearing white jeans again and looking nice in them. The other thing is sleeping soundly, no apnea. Also, I have a vague memory of being a cute girl once upon a time. I'd like to see if I still am. :P :P

      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
