Vsg Surgery in a couple of Hrs.



Recommended Posts

I don't if it's just me or anyone else had the same situation that I'm going through right now.

I'm driving to the hospital my Surgery is at 7am and I have weird thought about it...

I've been in my liquid diet for 2 weeks, and I haven't eat anything since 12am.

But, Right now I'm like not hungry but I'm the only thinking about is just food!! =(

Like just plain Food!!! I guess I do I am addicted....

Like driving in the Highway just thinking all the good food that I'm not going to be eating,... and like knowing that It's just a mental thing. I'm trying to keep my mind busy with other things.

I even made a love letter for myself to read it for support and to remember why I'm doing this.

Idk, there are just very weird thoughts.

I'm going crazy for food !!! :'(

Thanks, actually I ended up not having the VSG done.

My doctor Dr. Clayton Frenzel decided to stop the process because my liver still needs to shrink a little bit more. I started at 394 and yesterday I was 172 so, Ive lost 21 pounds but it seems isn't enough.

So, I got the cuts on my stomach but no VSG :(

Ive to continue with my two weeks liquids diet ... loose more weight Dr said At least 20 more pounds,...

To be continue,..

Thats no good Sergio as I was hoping to read about your journey as I'm booked in for December for my VSG in Australia.

Keep going on the pre-op diet and I wish you all the luck in the world, perhaps you may be sleeved in December so I'll keep an eye out for your posts

You want to start your new sleeved life with the highest chance of success right?

I'm sure that you are disappointed but surgery is still going to happen, just delayed a little. Better to have the delay and a healthy outcome!

Thinking of you!!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
