I only have to do liquids the day before my surgery so I escape the 2 week liquid diet :) I have been doing 2 Protein Shakes a day for a few weeks already (mon-fri) and will probably just do it all 7 days those last 2 weeks.

Oh good for you! Do you have kids? Married? I have a 4,7 & 9 yr old. My hubby & I aren't sure if were going to tell them & if we do, how we are...thank God, that's my main concern @ this point & time.

I am married and have 2 kids - 6 and 9. We just told them last night because my 9 year old has been asking about why I am seeing so many doctors. He was starting to get nervous that there was something wrong with me - and I had planned on telling him anyway (although I would have rather waited until insurance approval went through first). I just told them that Mommy was going to a lot of doctors so that I can make sure I'm healthy enough for surgery. The surgery is going to help me lose weight and be healthier. We then explained that I will be sore for a little while, and that I will be eating differently for a while - but that the results will be worth it.

I do like that if we decide. Aren't you so excited about being so much more active w/them?

Also, I've been YouTube addicted w/hearing stories & seeing peoples progress. I think I'll def do a progression slideshow to contribute back but not sure of a vlog yet. My husband plans on having it shortly after so we have a lot going on.

My surgery is scheduled for March 16th AT UCLA. I've had my Psych evaluation, my blood work and an EKG done, plus a few classes at the hospital. Really excited about it! I've lost 13 pounds on my own so far with a 1200 calorie diet. It would be nice to have a FB page for March Sleevers :)

      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. 🤞
