So far I've lost 15 pounds during this 6 month journey and have already experienced Hair loss. I'm concerned it will get worse after surgery. Anyone going through same thing?

Hello. Is anyone already in the May Sleevers FB group. The links provided don't seem to want to work for me, or the group is already set to private.

My surgery date is next Monday 5/4, and I could really use like-minded advice/support. The only person I have who's had WLS is a coworker who had RNY done ten years ago. Having the company of others going through the same thing at roughly the same time would be great.

I just got my date today and I am on the 27th as well, with Dr Keary Williams in Knoxville TN. It's been such a long road but I can finally see the home stretch!

Hi all,

I just stumbled across this website. I'm scheduled for surgery 5/27/15. I was originally scheduled on April 1st, but I changed the date because of all the upcoming activities in May (my daughter's college graduation, my birthday and Mother's Day). So, decided I wanted to be completely healed for everything. I actually wish I had gone with my original plan - less time to stress and worry. I'm very nervous, yet excited. So thankful I found this website. It has a lot of valuable information.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
