Got approved! And liquid diet sucks????



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone! I'm 25 years old female located in NY. I started my journey in December of 2014 with the seminar, had 3 months supervised weight visits, psych evaluation, medical clearance and finally got the date of my surgery about a week ago. I called today to follow u up with my medical clearance which I got and got told my insurance approved!! I'm elated!! ☺️☺️ I'm currently starting a vlog on YouTube as well as a blog and hopefully a podcast about my weight loss journey. I'll also be answering questions that anyone may have both pre op and post op. If interested in asking a question let me know and I'll include the email! GOOD LUCK EVERYONE! ????????

liquid diet does suck! But I lost 26lbs at the end of it, so I considered it totally worth it! :)

What is your channel called on youtube? I would love to follow you.

I've thought about doing videos myself but not sure if I should start them since I am already almost 2 months post op...

I am also 25 and from New York! I was sleeved 6/11. My liquid diet ended yesterday. You will have such a newfound appreciation for food when yours ends too. Good luck!

I lost 32 pounds on my 3 week pre op diet. Lucky for me, I love veggies, so I varied them and made a quick dressing with only allowed stuff.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
