Well......I had all my appointments( Nut x2, Psych x2, blood work, sleep study) finished by the end of November. I then needed to finish telephone consults per my insurance company- that was finished December 23. I saw my surgeon on January 12th. Paper work submitted to insurance last week so- just waiting for their approval to come through. Pre-op meeting Jan.22nd. So the nurse said I could have surgery 2/3, 2/10, or 2/24 depending on when we hear from the insurance company. I will have to start my two week pre-surgery diet when I definitely have my date. I guess February is the magic month!

My surgeon's office called and told me I needed to reschedule because they had a "scheduling conflict"... so now my new date is Feb 16th. I'm a bit disappointed and a lot annoyed I have to ask other people to change their plans for me if they can... but on the bright side I won't be getting surgery in the middle of Mercury Retrograde now (a bit of astrology humor).

I am sorry that they had to change you. Wow, that would be upsetting. Hang in there!

@Jana64 Thanks!! I'm super annoyed... I'm trying to stay positive. But I have been making plans for 3 weeks since I got the first date! I'm thinking like ... really y'all? Get it together! LOL

They are lucky that you were nice to them. I think I would have been crying or angry. But I think it would be worse the closer the date was. I mean, how long is your pre-op liquid phase? Can you imagine if you had started that already?

@@Jana64 I was saying that earlier! They are lucky I hadn't already started the liquid bc it's 2 weeks. lol I think it was an honest mistake, but if it happens again I'm gonna go into Babzilla mode I think bc it took it out of me today!

@@BeautifullyCreated1982 the first one is Jan 21-Feb 11th per the farmers almanac :)

      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.
