Update: My December 20th surgery was cancelled due to laryngitis. I just finished my second round of Prednisone with no improvement. Went to an ENT this morning. I'm now on an antibiotic and hydrocodone cough suppressant. I was able to be cleared for surgery on January 3rd. I'm remain hopeful, but seeing I was in the hospital, in my gown, and had my IV in before the surgery was cancelled, I'm keeping my hope at bay.

Only Decaf because caffeine is a diuretic

I just got sleeved on the 26th, word of advice. If you are a caffeine drinker stop now. My recovery went terrible because I had a caffeine headache for 4 days. Trust me you don't want the pain of the recovery and that headache at the same time. Best of luck guys

How's everyone that started PreOp doing? I started today, wasn't too bad, until early evening. I had chicken broth and Jello and took a nap until my stomach woke me up LOL. I'm most dreading the caffeine headache but I've been slowly weaning for the last week, so, so far so good.

Pray, Speak, Do! ~Meesh~

My stomach noises are so loud that my dogs look at me funny! Can't watch TV because every commercial is about food and I can't go on FB because everyone is posting freaking recipes. I'm tired of liquid Protein. I got some no salt broth and added Protein powder and seasonings, but it's still bland. I'm gonna miss spicy food!

      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.
