Seconds thoughts while undergoing nutrition phase



Recommended Posts

Thanks for all the comments and support. I'm going forward as planned.

Yeah, me too. I think I had momentary brain fog from my pre-op diet!

We all undergo a successful. Weight loss before surgery I know where we lose weight before we actually have surgery the thing is is that and you've known in the past that you have lost weight and you always regained it is always been the problem always the biggest problem and for me personally I know without my tool I would never have been able to get from the 263 wait to my current 158 I am now it is lowest I've ever been and I seriously you know that I would not have been able to do it without the surgery the surgery is just a tool to help us get to where we want to be and for me I don't regret it at all there was a short time. Where I was questioning myself but if I could go back and do it all over again I would 100%

Has anyone had second thoughts about surgery after experiencing successful weight loss during the nutritional counseling phase. Two and a half months of following my nutritionist recommendations for diet and exercise I am down 18 lbs. Even though I know I have lost only to gain it back, I am having thoughts that I can do this without surgery

My nutritionist wanted me to lose between 15-30lbs before surgery. Ive lost 55lbs. I really dont want to have the surgery but im sure if i keep losing this way, theres no point for surgery.

@@ppressey24 -- if you "really don't want to have the surgery" then don't have the surgery.

Seriously.

      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. 🤞
