@@leahhindi I'm lucky that my hubby is supportive.....well as much as he can be...haha... He doesn't talk much and if I started telling him I was nervous about getting the surgery done he would probably respond with " so don't do it then"....so I enjoy coming here and chatting with folks going through the same thing I am. I wish you all the luck in the world and hope we'll both get a date quickly!!!

Im also very lucky, my husband has been super supportive. When I first told him I was considering getting the sleeve done he was a little freaked out and not to sure about it because it is surgery after all but he was still open minded about it. So he came to my first seminar with me so that he could learn about it to and from that point on he has been super supportive and agrees that this is the best thing for me. Once he learned how much more dangerous it is to be so over weight vs. having the surgery he was all for it because he just wants me to be healthy. So I would definitely recommend bringing your husband along to appointments to hear this stuff strieght from the surgeon, it will probably have much more of a impact on him them him just researching on the internet.

I'm sorry I just saw where I never answered your question....I'm located in North Florida in a small town outside of Jacksonville and I'm having my surgery here local........I've heard a lot of folks saying good things about your doctor.

I'm supposed to be in May but I don't have a date yet. I have an appointment for chest x-ray and swallow test this Friday....then psychiatric eval and NUT visit next Wed.....and then lastly a 2 hour class I have to take on 4/25....After the class they submit to my insurance and then finally give me an actual date......but they are telling me it will be in May. I would love to stay in touch! I'm in Florida. Where are you located @@skinnyme13 ?

Im in laughlin, NV, where are you at? Im having my surgery done with dr. Ariel Ortiz in Mexico. Good luck with all your stuff!

      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.
