It's looking like late December or early January for me. More likely it will be early January given my work schedule. I've only got two more weigh ins left with my PCP. I've already met with my doctor's NUT and "passed" the psych evaluation. My doctor doesn't even require a pre-op diet liquid diet. Here's hoping the time flies quickly because I'm so ready!

Good luck with time flying... I have my pre op class on Nov13 at that point I will have completed everything and that's all o have left to do other than the pre op for surgery with the surgeon. I'm so ready and time is just dragging by. ????

I'm penciled in for surgery dec 18! I've already started my preop diet! In a competition with myself to see how much I can lose on my own. Was 291 @ 1st nutrition visit. Next one is November 13, I hope to be 280 then. I went from 3,000 + calories a day to 1600. I will then start 1200 for 2 weeks, then 1,000 for one week & then 800 before 3day liquid diet prior! I'm so freakin excited????????????

That is great, I'm hoping for Dec 2nd surgery in just waiting... Waiting is so hard. I go thru days I'm completely on track and then I eat like I'm never going to again. It's hard I know that I need to change my habits and that is the hardest part ever... You sound like your doing amazing. My first weigh it was 240 in August and I'm now 237.. Woo hoo :( this weekend we shopped to eat healthy all week and made a meal plan for the whole week. Fingers are crossed for a completely positive week.

      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. 🤞
