It's going ok for the most part, but now I'm having problems with having to run to the bathroom like asap.

Me too! In the beginning I was constipated, now it's the other way around.

@@SwampBillies I'll definitely be praying you'll be able to be sleeved at the time of surgery. At first, I wanted lap band surgery, but after talking to my surgeon, he said he really doesn't perform them because although it is the least invasive, it has a high complication rate and not a high success rate. Did you lose weight with the band? Congrats on your 9 lb loss! I haven't weighed myself because I'm scared I'll get discouraged. I plan on weighing the morning of surgery lol

I did initially lose about 50 pounds with the band.,....but after having complications I had to have it loosened up and then of course I put 25 pounds of that back on....then dieting on my own , I'm up, I'm down...you know how it goes....I wish I would have done the sleeve the first time....And I truly considered it but a good friend bragged on her band so much that I thought it was the right choice...I should have followed my own instincts...oh well...I just hope this is the last time!

      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.
