Hi there all! I am approved by BCBS as of yesterday 6-9-2015. I went to my Doctor today and we scheduled surgery for 7-7-2015. I am so excited to be taking this journey. Hope and success to each of you!

July 15th.

Already approved by insurance - I'm surprised so many get scheduled for surgery without being approved by insurance yet!

I just made all the rest of my needed appointments today - EKG, chest x-ray, labs, and pre-op physical. 3 weeks prior to surgery I have a pre-op class with a group of people going around the same time as me.

@@ohjul, I'm July 13th also!

Days are going quick! But I have found myself falling back into bad eating habits- saying to myself-"sure I can have a cup of gaucomole and chips- pretty soon I can't." Driving myself nuts!

Anyone else?

July 10th! It is quickly approaching!

I agree with slipping into bad habits by allowing myself to eat "just one more time" times. That mindset has to change for me!

Good luck everyone!

3 week liquid? Wow, I start my liver shrink meals next week and all liquids the following week. Im gonna try to stay away from friends until surgery day so that i won't be tempted to have what they're having. This week will be the hardest because I will definitely want to get my "last" this or that. Good luck everyone! It will be so worth it!

      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.
