I was scheduled for June 19th, but they rescheduled it for June 17th. I'm nervous and keep second guessing this choice. I'll be having a large hernia fixed and I'm afraid I'm entering a world of pain!

How is the liquid diet coming along? The first two days were pretty bad with a constant headache. But I'm feeling better now adding some puréed veggie Soups. Still low energy, like having a mild flu. Ugh. It's taking a lot out of me to do little things.

when I got my date I seconded guessed everything myself. I'm terrified of being in pain afterwards. The 1st 3 days after I got my date I couldn't sleep I kept dreaming about being in pain. Another worry for me is what's my skin and boobs gonna look like. But even with all these concerns I'm preparing each day :). Also I'm not on a pre op diet. I just have to do Clear liquids the day before then fast after midnight.

Morristown Medical Center....was that formerly known as Morristown Memorial? That's where I was born.

Many, many, MANY years ago.

I'm having my surgery in Tijuana. I'm starting to get very nervous! "What ifs" are starting to pop in my head, but then I remember my weight would kill me sooner or later.

I have a feeling this is going to be a very long 6 days til surgery. ????

      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
