December 10th Sleever here



Recommended Posts

Very, Very, excited here after a long-haul getting the pre approval from the pesky insurance companies. The checklist of sleep studies, CPAPs, meeting with dieticians, and phycologist is finally complete and I can focus on on my upcoming surgery on Dec 10th. I haven't been put on a liquid diet at all, just a low calorie diet. I think that will change on my Dec 1st appointment. Good luck to all the December sleevers.

couldn't find the spell checker...

Peace my friends!

Congrats brianscoob! You've definitely come a long way for sure. I'm scheduled on the same day as well. I totally have butterflies in my stomach everyday. Yesterday when I went to my pre-op appt. and received my check-in time. Kinda felt like time stopped for a second. Wow this is really happening! Blessed it only took me 1 month. From seminar to approval. Good luck to all of us and our new lives ????

This is going to be an epic day Shari71! My nerves aren't getting to me yet but as time gets closer the nerves will most likely pick up. Butterlies are pretty common, see if your Dr can give you something for anxiety on surgery day. I'm not sure how I'm going to tackle Thanksgiving yet, turkey, gravy are probably okay and I'm going to try to stay away from the starches, bread, and stuffing. Smart choices need to be amsde tomorrow. Good luck Shari71.

      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.
