My date is June 22nd. I'm nervous but also excited. The pre-op liquid diet has been hard but I finally have it under control. I started at 264 and am down to 240. I hope to lose a little more before the surgery since my doctor said he sees better outcomes with more weight loss before the surgery.

I don't have the best support at home so these forums are a life saver!

This is the place! Sounds like you are off to a great start!

You might want to find someone in your circle that you can talk to In person. It helps even more!

Good luck with surgery!

Thanks for the good wishes! Today is the big day. Surgery scheduled at 2:10. May need a hiatal hernia repair, too. Hoping I can still do the single incision procedure.

In a way I kind of wished for a hernia and gull bladder removal during surgery. Get all done in one shot. No suck luck. Other than my weight and some body aches because of my weight I am healthy.

Best of luck. Take it slow the first few days. Hopefully you bounce back quickly.

Had surgery yesterday at 4pm, a couple hours late. Because of the hiatal hernia I couldn't do the single incision. Feeling ok and walked for the first time at 10pm. Looking forward to drinking Water and seeing my family today.

I'm so upset right now... My surgeon cancelled my surgery because he is going to be out of the country and don't know if he will be back by the 29th. So I had to stop my 10 day liquid diet and wait for my new date. really really sucks

      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.
