July 12th will be here before you know it. then the surgery date...seems like it all takes forever then BAM it's over and your losing weight.

Read all you can...the more you inform yourself the more you'll be prepared for what is ahead.

My surgery (RNY) was may 24th, I was 224 highest weight at 5' 5"....at surgery, I was 207 and this morning I was at 180lbs!

Are you guys taking a bariatric Vitamin? Those have B12 in them. Since my surgeon is at a center of excellence they only let us take the bariatric Vitamin. You can find the B12 in a Gummy form I believe.

I take Superior Source B-12/B 6 & Folic Acid... it's a very teeny tiny dissolvable pill you put under your tongue.

So I weighed myself today, and I have lost 38 lbs from my highest weight in 7 weeks 5 days. I did a face comparison, and I'm really starting to see a difference. I was 283.8 at my HW and 245.8 today.

one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.

I'm sorry to hear you're still getting sick. You have lost a lot of weight but like you said, it's hard to enjoy it if you're always feeling bad. I hope they get it figured out for you.

      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.
