Anyone getting sleeved 12/18?



Recommended Posts

Hey guys!

IM SO EXCITED! my surgery date is 12/18 and I start my pre-op on 12/4. Its going to be an intense 2 weeks because I have (2) work Holiday Lunches and one Bowling potluck but I'm so pumped to start my journey that I'm going to put the blinders on and get the job done :)

Anyways, if anyone is also having surgery 12/18 and wants to be friends, i would LOVE it!

Thanks!

finally got a confirmed date of 12/19, which is on a Sat, due to the Dr. trying to get everyone in before end of year, found out no pre-op diet for me because of BMI (only if BMI over 60) now the nervousness has set in.

Hey there! I'm scheduled for December 18th also. Yes, I started my preop diet last week...had a Migraine for three days. Today was much better.

I have to do four of the supplements per day (shake, bar, soup) and 4 oz. lean Protein and vegs.

How's it going for you?

Hey there. I pray your surgery was a success. I had mine Friday and was discharged this morning. I'm still in a great amount of pain and nauseated.

      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. 🤞
