Most definitely! I've gotten to where I have to sit while dressing and only buy slip on shoes so I don't have to bend to tie laces.

I did have a moment tonight that I enjoyed with my baby sister who is my assistant photographer. I was sweating my butt off, already achy and so tired driving from the ceremony to the reception when she looked at me and said, "smile...and remember this is the last time you'll photograph a wedding and feel this crappy. By the next one, you'll be much lighter and have way more energy." She's never been fat a day in her life but it is so awesome how understanding she is.

Pre-op tests start at 9:30am (two hours away from home so I've gotta get up early). I can't sleep. I swear u would think I'm going in for surgery in the morning. I am so nervous.

Surgery - 5 days away for me and counting. Pre-op diet is starting to feel better - Day 5, but can't wait to have something other than the nasty shake I'm taking. Love the popsicles and Jello :)

All cleared for surgery. Passed all pre-op tests. Even glad they did an ultrasound on my legs to make sure the pains I've been having weren't bloodclots. All went well.

Leaving for vacation in New York tomorrow morning and returning Monday to get ready for surgery on Tuesday. Yay!!

I've got a couple of small sample packs of unflavored powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury powder and my raspberry lemonade crystal light in my carry-on bag. Praying I don't end up with a layover anywhere so it's not too tortuous. Lol

(**I don't have to start my liquid diet until 10am Monday so it'll only be a little rough while I'm on the plane ride home.)

Finishing the first of my three day liquid diet. I have to drink a special meal replacement that is full of sugar. It's not the post-op shake. Yuck. However, it's the only pre-op I have to do so I'll just suck it up. I'm a 33.3 BMI so no liver shrinkage necessary. I'm so excited about Tuesday!

      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.
