May 10th for me! I'm excited and really not nervous at all at this point. I've been nervous off and on for months wondering if I'm doing the right thing, but once my mind was really made up - no longer nervous.

I'm officially scheduled for may 24th! I started my vlcd on tuesday and the sugar withdrawals are giving me SUCH a bad headache. but it's worth it! I'm on this diet for so long, I've decided to have one tiny saturday treat in the form of a fruit. it will be nice to have something a bit tangy. ????

This is day 5 of pre-op liquid diet and still doing good. No more headaches. Not really hungry but now understand what "head hunger" is. Saw a pizza delivery guy on way home from work yesterday and thought OMG how I'd love to have pizza, but then asked myself if I was really hungry and the answer was no. It's just habit that we want foods we love whether hungry or not. I actually think now that this 2 week preparation is good for me to get in the right mindset. May 10th will be here before I know it!

      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. 🤞
