The night before.....



Recommended Posts

So tomorrow 19:00hrs 9/13 is sleeve day.

Pre-op diet went well...lost around 20lbs in the two weeks. I'm motivated, I have had a word with myself and we agreed we are ready and excited about the future. No second thoughts.

However crapping myself with the magnitude of the next 24 hrs.

So this time tomorrow I will be post op and on my way to a better, healthier wardrobe... I mean life .

Thanks for the support from contributors here on the forum. Long may it continue. I look forward to sharing my before and afters at some stage ...!

See you on the other side.

Good Luck tomorrow!! I was in your shoes last Tuesday and had a bit of a freak out in the hospital. My surgeon had anesthesia pay me a visit per my request. They gave me some happy juice so my hour wait would be anxiety free. I Will be officially a week post op tomorrow and I am so happy I went through with it. Yes, even though I still have another full week of liquids. I can't wait for you to update us. I'm sending positive vibes your way!!

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
