I had bad headaches for the first 3 days of pre op diet. Headache went away on 4th day. I was very hungry on pre op diet. I had surgery monday 29th. I'm not hungry. Getting my required fluids is a job right now. Every day will get better and this is worth doing!

I'm really excited! Nervous, but that's normal. However, during this pre op diet, I keep thinking, "is there anything else I can do to make sure my liver shrinks enough? " Haha! Guess I just want to make sure that nothing prevents this surgery from happening.

We were at friends and had pizza everywhere!! I can totally relate. Hubby ate three pieces sitting next to me and I had to feed my daughter a piece. So hard!!! It's not the first party that I've had to use self control, so I'm def stronger than I was two weeks ago! 18lbs down ( started dec 19th.) one week until surgery!!

      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.
