Thanks!

I'm having my surgery the same day as you. I'm so glad to know that someone else is going through this the same day that I am. I'm having second thoughts but I'm going to push through this. Good luck!

Yes. I'm nervous though because I've been doing the pre-op shakes for two weeks and only lost 4 pounds. The dietician accused me of cheating. I really don't eat much and always tell people that yet I can't lose weight. I'm wondering if the surgery will really help me. How about you? Sleeve?

Accused you of cheating? Horrible! Everyone is different and processes differently. I am so sorry you had to hear that. I am down 8 pounds and on day 8 of a 10 day pre-surgical insane diet.

Yes....sleeve. I am having the triple play as they call it. Haital hernia repair, gall bladder and stones removed and the sleeve....

Just remember, as a great anesthesia told me right before i went down..."Don't worry....I have more drugs than you have nerves." ....priceless!

Getting tomorrow too. I feel nervous and just want to get to it. Worried more about pain and being able to get all my fluids and stuff like that than the surgery itself.

Same here, Ladies.....nervous but have to believe based on everything we have seen and heard from others this is going to be an exciting new beginning for us! (Don't get me wrong...I am scared out of my mind too!) Please keep in touch, post op :-)

Hi Ladies,

I'm getting sleeved tomorrow morning too! Nerves are starting to come out. I'm just worried about drinking Water day 2. I'm gonna walk walk walk to get rid of the gas. For me, it's all the what ifs afterwards that's making me nervous as well. One day at a time.....that's what I keep saying to myself....

Hope all goes well for you all tomorrow! Cheers!

      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.
