One more week until our new lives! I hope everyone is doing well. This weekend I was a little nervous that I WASN'T nervous. I have this incredible peace and calmness about me. I am well prepared. I have an awesome surgeon and a great medical team. They have done a super job in educating, informing, motivating, and preparing me to change my life. After reading some many people's comments and threads on Bariatric Pal, I am so glad I chose Hanneman Hospital in Philadelphia! They will not let you get the surgery unless you truly understand all of the stages, the risks, what to expect, etc. Perhaps that is why I have this peacefulness surrounding me. I am SURE I won't feel the same this upcoming weekend!

Stay focused everyone! We have worked hard so far. Let's do this right!

I'm not nervous either...I'm sure it will come when driving to the hospital :) I look forward to ditching my cpap and be able to shop at normal stores! Exercise without worrying about damaging my knees and ankles, chasing my son...OK I'm echoed for everything!! Sexy lingerie!! ;)

      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.
