Hi Tiana,

My date is also June 22nd! I am super excited, nervous, and a little impatient. I joined this forum when I scheduled my first appointment and I have found it very helpful, but I haven't posted anything. No one knows about my surgery except my husband. I would love to be your buddy!

Great! Have you finished all of your appointments? I go back for my pre-op appointments next week.

Hi! I have finished all of my classes, but have one more medical appointment left with my Hematologist. I have a mild blood clotting disorder. I have been cleared, but just need labs done. I'm also pending insurance approval, though I am a BMI of 40; so should be approved! ????

I started this journey with the intention of doing the sleeve, but changed my mind to RNY after my appt with the surgeon. I feel like i need the negative feedback of dumping to stay away from bad choices in order to be successful. Why did you choose RNY?

I was also convinced that I wanted the sleeve until my initial consultation. I have a history of acid reflux so the sleeve would probably make my life miserable. I started trying to make little changed now so it won't be so hard later. I never thought it would be so hard not to eat and drink at the same time.

      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.
