We can do this guys. 24hrs from now we'll be different. We won't be preop buddies. We'll be post op buddies.

Every year when Thanksgiving comes around when ppl are finding their fat pants, we'll bw celebrating the day we said goodbye to our fat pants.

So cool to have a group to compare notes with. My surgery will be on the 25th, just 2 days away! My surgeon is going to take out my gallbladder at the same time because my ultrasound showed a bunch of gallstrones - no symptoms from this! Guess I should count my blessings. My husband had RNY Dec 5 last year and is down 95 pounds, I hope I do as well. Sending good thoughts and prayers to all of you going in tomorrow. Speedy recoveries to all! Keep in touch.

      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. 🤞
