Dec. sleevers.. I saw a topic about this but lost it? Anyone out there yet for dec. surgery?



Recommended Posts

I just recently changed jobs so I don't have that to worry about. If I was at my old job, if one person knows, everyone knows.. So I totally get that!

You're going to be successful! Just in calorie intake you will lose weight so don't worry! :)

Yes I have lost my total weight already that was my goal for WLS, so I'm not too worried, but I heard about a slump you go thru after awhile.. Just have to keep moving even tho it's hard Bc I'm a hairdresser, on my feet all day, I find it hard to walk after work..

I totally get the moving thing, I'm a teacher so I'm constantly up and moving so when I get home I just want to crash. Something I have to add to the fix it list haha

I just changed my surgery date to December 18th, so I hope it's okay to join in here.

I ended up having to move from October, and while I'm a little worried about the wait, it works out better as I have time off and holidays off so I don't have to go back to work until Jan. 5th. :)

Will be a great start to 2015!

Of course you can join in! The more the merrier!

I'm having my surgery December 22nd for the same reasons as you. I have the holidays off so it just made sense to do it then.

Welcome @FrankiesGirl. :) I'm guessing you both work for a school district?? I also took off around the holidays Bc my mom is a teacher and she'll be around to help me.. But for me I hVe to take a medical leave, so 3 weeks unpaid :(

Haven't gotten my surgery date yet, but pretty sure it will be in December and I would love to join in with supporting each other!

I don't have a date yet but it will most likely be the end of December given my weigh-ins, etc. So exciting :)

I'm hoping for a December date. I'm actually on track for November but want till wait until after finals (December 10th) My file goes to the insurance on October 28th. I'm hoping that will be enough time for it to come back and then book a date. Does everyone already have their dates already?

It's good to see so many others scheduled for December, I was starting to feel like the only one scheduled so far out. It sure seems like a long time away but I know it will probably go quickly.

Hard not to be envious of those darn November sleevers and their quick scheduling though. :)

I have my date set for December 17th in Tijuana!! The waiting is definitely killing me, but I have a month off from work so its for the best I guess. Im honestly more worried about the flight over than the actual surgery :blush:. I cant wait to hear all of our sucess stories

      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.
