Great to hear! I'm going to make my first apt with Dr Rothchild.

How many nights in the hospital? Gas pain or muscle? food going ok?

I am meeting with my pcp for a physical and to start my insurance required 6 mo dr monitored weight loss next week. Besides being required, I want to show the dr I am committed but I just can't get there alone. have started pushing hard and working out 4 days a week for the last 2 weeks, which I haven't done concistiently since high school team sports.

I made my apt with Dr Rothchild for the first week of Aug and I'm beyond excited! Is it strange I'm already anticipating the count down to surgery 6+ mo away?!

I'd love to meet with others for an informal support group. Id rather be in a smaller group to get to know folks. Let me know who's in!

Maybe we could create a FB group and that way we can keep up with each other easier online and set up meetings that way too? Just a suggestion.

      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. 🤞
