My sister and niece were sleeved and tried everything and really really loved the shakes from body nutrition.. And they sell samples.. Ordered quite a few different flavors.. They say your taste change after surgery so didn't want to get too many in a big tub and then tastes change and not like them.. Decisions decisions

I just bought my Gas-X strips and a box of Premier Protein shakes. I will still have some boxes of broth, sf Jello, Bariatric Advantage shakes left from my preop diet. Need to start packing my bag!

The only preop I have to do is a liquid diet on Tuesday. I plan on getting packed and go shopping tomorrow. I was on vacation when I got the call last Tuesday that I was approved and had preop the following morning. Everything went through so fast, it has only been three weeks since I first went in for a consultation.

I'm June 23rd (Tuesday) my pre-op diet was not very restrictive just the day before liquids only. But I must admit I did have a few last minute food funerals so I decided to do two days of only liquids to make up for my mess up. Really looking forward to my surgery but my nerves are going crazy and I can't seem to stay off this site reading! Wishing eveyone a successful surgery day!

I'm also scheduled for the 23rd! I have a two day clear liquid diet that I started today. One more day and then I'm on my way! Good luck to you.

      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.
