This Wednesday?

Yes, this Wednesday. Are you excited, nervous or all of the above? I'm glad I'm doing it before Halloween so I don't gorge on candy but I am kinda bummed to miss out on one last Thanksgiving feast! Ha ha! We'll be one month out by then so I might be able to get a little bit of turkey down!

I'm very excited but a little nervous also. I start my pre op diet on Monday. I'm glad to miss out on Halloween candy bc i love candy and knowing I can't have it actually doesn't bother me. I thought the same thing about thanksgiving guess we just have to wait and see how our stomachs adjust to food then.

I'm the 29th as well. Went for my pre-admission today which went well. I have been on Optifast since 1st October & lost 4.5kg so feeling optimistic for the future. At this point I just can't wait to get it done..happy days ahead ????

I'm also the 29th. Love this forum to connect with other sleevers. I just started my pre-op diet today since the doc said I only have to do it for one week. I've been looking at different kinds of Protein Shakes. Anyone have a favorite?

      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.
