October 14 peeps you ready



Recommended Posts

Today is day 7 of my preop and I woke up very hungry. Next two days I have to do clear liquid and I am not sure what I can eat/drink to keep me full. But surgery day is around the corner. Good luck to all coming up and I hope everyone that has done the surgery is feeling great today. Share your tips please.

I am going on the 13th so I am really on the roller coaster emotionally. I don't do Clear Liquids until after the process . I do 1000 calories a day I've only been hungry 1 or two times. I try to keep busy to stop my mind from wandering to scary thoughts

I needed to do clear liquids for a few days post-op. I drank the Isopure clear read-to-drink fluids; the large bottles have 40g Protein. I figured if I could keep the Protein level up, I was less likely to go through a bout of losing a lot of hair.

I am about as ready as I am going to get. Cleaned out the fridge last week. Bought needed essentials. Have prepping and post op med at hand. Coerced loved one to travel 1100 miles to care for me for 5 days. Coerced others to look I'm after he leaves.

Had last nice meal with steak.

Just need to figure out how to tell the cats that mommys yummy is not a may ground any longer.

I love that my new life date will be 10/14/2014. Haha.

Let's keep up the great attitudes losers! Love to all of you.

      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.
