There is another October thread floating around, but it may have started after this one! I'm scheduled for Oct 10th. I'm hoping the month will fly by. This surgery is on my mind 24/7!!

Oops...realized this is on the bypass board, I'm doing the sleeve :)

I am currently scheduled for surgery on October 7th at Dartmouth. I am excited and terrified... but mostly excited.

By eating smaller meals throughout the day and following my workout plan (4x wk) established by a trainer, I've managed to lose weight during the past 5 weeks as I make my slow transition to the 2 wk Pre-op diet.

HW 340

CW 319

Goal Weight 240lbs.

Here's to the future...

Best of luck to all my fellow October Buddies!!

      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. 🤞
