Recommended Posts

@RNsleever715 Feeling any better today ?

Kate

You are sweet to ask! I am having seriously serious sugar cravings. When it's seriously serious, that means it's REAL BAD. Lol! I hate this so much. I'm a carbaholic. :(

I'm BAD... I'm also on my 2 week pre-op (day 9) and I snuck an Oreo cookie that I had been thinking about for about 4 hours at 3am! I stood in front of the frig and sucked it down .... Went back to bed and hated myself! :-(

One oreo? You're doing fine, don't worry! If you had an entire pack, that's one thing. Rome wasn't built in a day, and one cookie is barely a blip on the radar.

Today, my patient's family gave me a giant box of hot, steaming cheese sticks from the pizzeria they work at. I thank them, told them I'd enjoy it at home, and then threw it at my roommate and told her to hurry up and eat it to get it out of my sight. Oh God, the temptation!

This is day 6 of my pre-op diet and I actually feel really good. First 3 days were hell, but I kept telling myself in my mind that "I am ready for this" It really is all in the mind. I went from craving Chinese food and pizza to not feeling hungry at all. I started to go to the track in the evenings after work to distract me and give me something to do. There is no turning back for me. I lost 12 pounds in just 6 days with 3 days of pre-op diet left before I'm sleeved and I am sooo ready for the other side. I know it won't be easy, but I'm ready!

      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
