That's my fear too. I don't like many drinks like crystal light and stuff. I even don't like Water. My surgery is Jan 11 so I am going to have to keep trying different beverages. And get use to water.

I was NEVER a water drinker and basically only drank soda. However, I turned that around in August which was enough time before my November sleeve surgery to get on track. I hated water my entire life and now I love it! Push yourself with water and hopefully it will turn out as good for you as it did for me. I can't imagine going back to soda at this point and leaving behind my water. Good luck to you on your journey and with surgery.

Noted. However, I'm not thin skinned, I just now realize that in this forum I can not have my opinion, instead, I have to ride the band wagon and that I'm not going to do. Regretfully, I came on here for support and it has been the total opposite.

I thank everyone for their time but this is just not for me.

PLEASE don't give up on this site..It has truly helped me with what I needed to help me pre and post. I look for the positive feedback, read ALOT of people before n after for encouragement and yes I have scrolled pass some posts that tend to degrade n move away from what is asked...because I'm not here for negative jabs (even if not intended) because this process is hard (in all phases) emotionally n physically n information is plentiful (good n bad)... I encourage you to still read post to see what can n can not help you in your journey..I wish you the best proud of you already.

Thank you, and no I'm not giving up I need all the advice I can get- I am however being real careful with what I write. Apparently, the information my surgeon and nutritionist provided me with is incorrect.

Thanks again! I appreciate you reaching out.

      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. 🤞
