I just looked mine up on my insurance and I have to have 6 consecutive dietician appointments in 6 consecutive months. That I will have by July. I started end of February and last one is July 3. They moved them a little each time to get me from the end to the beginning of the month. I guess Im good unless they just switched something. Shew!

No Friday scheduling for me, sadly. My surgeon only does sleeves on Tuesday. So I'll be working Monday, surgery Tuesday and coming back to work the following Monday. If I'm still not feeling great I'll either work half days or take a few more days off.

Try to schedule it on a Friday this way if your taking a week off of work you get 4 extra days off

Just got done my cardiologist appt. she said I dont have to have a stress test and Im all cleared for surgery from her. All I have left is sleep Apnea test on May 10 that they rescheduled from last week and Im cleared from all my preop tests and exams. I'm glad all these different drs appts since January have been time consuming.

And by the way I'm a mom of two boys also. Lol

      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. 🤞
