2 more days until surgery early Monday morning. I am super nervous now. Hoping for a busy weekend to keep my mind occupied.

I'm in the same boat. Surgery is set for Monday at 8:00am.

Hoping not to think too much this weekend. I had work to occupy my mind but now what. I guess clean the house. Lol

Good luck on Your surgery!

I think you'll be surprised at how quickly the time will fly. And once you enter the hospital it's all kind of a haze, sort of like being in a dream state, at least it was for me.

Try and get some rest and concentrate primarily on the end product - a brand new you!

Congrats!

Doing OK today. Just getting my toes done trying to distract myself from everything. Hopefully everything will go smoothly and I'll do great.

Good luck to you all. I couldn't sleep last night. Went to bed at nine, back up at 11 for 2 hours then tried to sleep again. Finally asleep at about 3. My stomach is freaking out with all of this anxiety. Cramping, rumbling and not to mention what is coming out. Sorry, TMI. Cleaned my whole house this morning and my mom will be arriving within the hour. 2 more sleeps!

What are you all eating for you lady meal? NUT told me something easily digestible cause if anything is left in my stomach they won't complete surgery. I don't have any sort of liquid preop to follow. Just low carb.

I slept ok, but woke up early. Did some last minute errands and took a nap. Hopefully tomorrow isn't bad. I have to clean and do laundry. My stomach is acting up too, but I think it's the liquid diet.

It's good to know that I'm not the only one so anxious.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one either! Very soon we will have a whole new set of issues to combat!

I have been on mushy foods today, tomorrow Clear Liquids and a colon cleanse in the evening. Not looking forward to that. Lol.

I had to make dinner for my husband while I had Jello.

I'm so excited for our new chapter!!!

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
