I have been waiting it seems like forever, the last 4 years to have this surgery. Everytime I was close something would happen i.e. changing of insurance and would have to start over. This time I have been waiting since April of last year and I am finally 2 weeks away from having gastric bypass!!! Yay for me!!! I am currently on a liquid diet that my physician put me on and I've already lost 10 pounds in 2 days. Which I'm sure was Water weight but hey its a loss. I want to lose 187 pounds!!! That's a person and a half!! So glad I'm finally at this stage and it won't be long before I start shedding the pounds with the bypass and exercise. I'm just so excited. Ready to begin this new life and see where it takes me!!! I'm a registered nurse so I know that the loss will help me tremendously for my career. How is everyone else doing with thier liquid diet, if u have to be on one. Tell me how excited you are for surgery!!! I can't wait

      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.
