Got my insurance approval today. Excited to have procedure done October 26th! Currently eating high Protein, very low carb diet. Starting weight 400lbs! Down to 375 in 5 weeks. But I've lost 90 lbs before!! But just can't seem to keep it off! I am sure that this is the answer I'm looking for!

Well I found out my Dr is making a change from his practice.. He's still doing surgery at my hospital as well but he's moving from his current prsctice to the school. Of medicine there in that town and will be teaching bariatric surgery! It's awesome to know he's that good.. But now it'll be a few weeks before they have his schedule for. The rest of the year and guess who's in the group that gets to wait?? Me!! I'm so aggravated so.. I hopefully will still be October.. But just near the end of the month.. If not it'll be November.. I know it's worth the wait but ugh!

      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. 🤞
