Hey all! Got my surgery date of November 16!! It's driving me crazy! My surgeon only does conversion from band to bypass on Mondays. That limits my options for a date severely. But I'm on the list of there are any cancelations I'll be moved up. I'm located in NYC. The Bronx to be exact. Anyone else in the city?

My surgery date is November 16th as well. We're a month away! Aaaaahhhhhh!!!!!

Come join our secret FB group nov 2015 vsg! Send me a friend request on FB and I'll add you to the group. My name is Anna Montagna-Galanos

Anna - can you add me too? I just messaged you on Facebook. (first name is Aileen)

Officially approved by insurance today!!! It was a bit of a struggle to get to this point -- I thought I was going to be approved a month ago, but I had some trouble getting all of my doctors to get all of their ducks in a row. But it's official; I'm doing this!!! I'll be scheduled tomorrow, but we're looking at mid-November.

Hi, my surgery is scheduled for Nov. 11, 2015. And I am starting day 3 of 7 of my liver shrinking diet. The first day wasn't so bad I guess because I was at work for 12hrs. I did get a little hungry tho, so I had string cheese for 2 of my Snacks that day. And for dinner i ended up eating a bratwurst on one of those sandwich rournds that only have 100 cal. But i only ate 1 slice. But I still lost 2 lbs that day. Yesterdays I was so hungry. I cheated too. I thought if I ate a little more than the 2 cans of creamed Soup I was allowed, I'd be ok, but nope I cheated again. So it's a struggle but praying it gets better /easier real soon, I've got 5 more days to go and a 3 day weekend of 12hr work days ahead not counting today last off day before I go back to work. Praying for success.

My surgery is Monday 11/9 and I am beyond excited. I know I will get nervous Sunday night/Monday morning but right now it's all thrills and happiness! Here goes! Good luck everyone. My hunger definitely decreased on pre-op diet and I did fairly well and lost 7 pounds, which for me , with typical slow weight loss, PCOS and diabetes I am happy with my 7! I can't wait for this extra MESS to fall off!! I know it won't be an easy task but it will be worth it. :)

Just got my surgery date today! November 30th! I'm having the sleeve done at Crouse Hospital in Syracuse, NY by Dr. Cooper. It's a BCBS Center of Excellence. I was so worried I wouldn't get approved, but I got the approval today, and the coordinator called me this afternoon to schedule :)

      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. 🤞
