Hi October family!

I'm up October 19th. I've been feeling so good and confident throughout the 3 week liquid diet, but then today I got this knot in my stomach and this fear that something bad might happen during surgery.

Ron's wife's post scares me. I have a 2 and 4 year old and I just need to be there for them. I keep telling myself it will be ok. It will be okay. It will be okay. It will be okay. Kinda like that. Lol

The posts where people have had successful surgeries and are feeling good- you should know how much your words calm me and make me feel better.

I hope Ron is okay.

Anyway, I'm glad we have this place to share our journeys. Xo

@@anewme2015 Remember that most of these surgeries go off without a hitch. You are in good hands. My heart hurts for Ron and he is in my prayers everyday but I also have so much faith in his will that I believe he is going to conquer every obstacle before him. Just as I believe in you and your ability to meet this head on and begin your new, healthier life! As Ron would say, 'you've got this!!!'

I'm day four post is anyone else just want to eat something small?? I'm supposed to be on a liquid diet for two weeks. And I'm just tired of the Protein Shakes. Grrr

I feel the same way I'm so tired of Protein shakes, but it's a must. Just stay positive that's what I've been doing.

@@Smallfry06 8 day post and feeling the exact same way! The problem for me is tat everything including my medicine has a sweet taste. I just want something savory so bad (anything but broth that is!!). Kev but some lobster bisque Soup in the VitaMix last night and I liked the tip of the spoon about three times. It was delicious! !!! But ohhhhhh I paid dearly!!!! Worst gas pains ever...all night..never again!

      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.
