February Sleevers -- Let's Do This Together



Recommended Posts

Well I got my info from insurance and my surgery is approved! $0 out of pocket! Excited and nervous now that it is real. Have appointments on 01/24, 02/08 and surgery on 02/14. Still doesn't feel real since, I've been trying to have this surgery since 2015.

Strengthin#ers I sure am. But I'm more excited than nervous. I'm so ready for this. Reading any blogs or posts makes me even more excited for the 20th to get here. It's almost all I think of.

So much good news tonight. Good luck everybody. My file was either submitted to insurance today or will be tomorrow, so I'm hoping to join you all next month! Since we leave for vacation late March, my cutoff to have this surgery is mid February, or I'll have to wait until late April, which would suck...so...bad. Doctor said he needs me six weeks out before I can fly. So I'm still hoping I'll somehow pull this off.

      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.
