Recommended Posts

Home and settled in. Never knew how many damn food commercials there is on TV.

“Damn, I wish I had some of that!” or “Boggkk! Change the channel!”?

Day 7 Update (10/31/17) Happy Halloween!!

Had my first Post Op appointment with Surgeon yesterday..weighed in at 244! Down from 260, so that is 16 pounds lost. Nobody has really noticed, but that is ok. I am sure my mom will when she visits on Thanksgiving.

Doc has me on 3 Protein Shakes a day for the next two weeks until my next appointment which is Nov 13th.

Feeling good, NOT hungry at all which is a nice change. Taking my Water in one sip sip sip at a time.

So will post again soon.

Of course your mom freaked, most Moms notice when you loose 5 pounds lol. I won"t be seeing my Mom until Thanksgiving so we'll see how that goes.

Pretty good thanks! I had to get my BMI up to 35 so I had a shot at qualifying. My sleep test came back with mild sleep apnea so that is "good" too because I needed a co-morbidity. I have a 90 day waiting period and that'll be up mid-December. So, i'm looking at late Dec/early Jan hopefully!

      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.
