@@Spicy06 I'm on day 5 of my liquid diet. Not gonna lie....day 3 was rough. I was very...angry...is the nice way to put it! Lol! Now I'm ok. I don't get hungry and i feel like I have energy. I think the excitement of knowing what's to come helps override any hunger...at least it does for me! Well that and sleep. I go to bed super early so I don't get hungry. Don't worry! You'll do great!

  • I just got some disappointing news today. My Doctor decided he needed to take 3 weeks off. Which, it just so happens to fall right when my surgery was scheduled. Now, I'm rescheduled for March 24th. Also...I have already started the pre-surgery diet...grrr. :angry: Which means I'm on it a week longer. I hope I have the strength to stay on it. The 1,000 calories or less per day is very hard on my poor old brain. Everyone around me is going to have to deal with me being ditzy for one more week. :wacko:

Getting close to my surgery date and I'm so nervous! The funny thing is that I'm not as nervous about the surgery as I am the anesthesia. I've never been put under general anesthesia.

      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.

      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.
