Melanie, I had the gastric bypass surgery (Roux-en-Y). My Dr. mentioned that this procedure could be outpatient, in and out basically. But nooo way for me. I chose to stay overnight.

So far so good. Lost 14 pounds since 02/12. Take care everyone.

This pre op diet is killing me. I'm down probably 10 lbs with another week to go. I'm snowed in the last 2 days and have picked up knitting again to keep me busy. It's helped some. Plus it's hard to exercise and I'm tired I guess it's the limited calories. But one week tomorrow I will be on the other side. Just trying to push thru.

February is rocking and sounds like everyone is moving along. I had pre op today so now just a little over a week before take off. I have given up sugar and caffiene on my own and stuck to it so far. There is a desire to binge though since I don't have a pre op diet...only one day of Clear Liquids. I just hope I have a smooth time as well.

I am going to finally have to tell my MIL who lives with us. I have put it off hoping her new place would come through and I wouldn't have to listen to her negativity. But alas it will be another opportunity for me to practice not punching her in the face. :)

      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.
