I was scheduled for sleeve surgery Dec 16th but it was postponed until the 30th because I was sick. Now my surgery is postponed until whenever because I am sick again. Im so depressed I feel hopeless. I dont want to live like this anymore. Maybe God doesn't want me to have this surgery. Oh please let me get it and be OK! I ate everything in the house today. I know that does nothing good. I can barely get off the couch I am so miserable. I hate myself. I hate my life. I don't want to die but I am in Hell. Just venting. So sad its hard to breathe.

Waiting is the hardest part. I remember those negative feelings all too well prior to having my surgery. Stay focused on why you decided to do this in the first place. You want to be healthier & feel good about yourself. I promise it'll give you more confidence & the reward is worth the wait. Hang in there. You got this, really!!

Second time I'm actually saying this tonight ~ "No one said it was going to be easy. They just said it would be worth it!"

I have major depression/bipolar depression and anxiety and just got sleeved less than 24 hours ago.

It's got to get bad before it gets good chicka! This has been like a light at the end of tunnel. Think of it as a push/ a tool/ being plucked from where you are now to be in a better more healthier more alive place than you were before!

Carry onwards, focus, have faith!

I struggled a lot preop with committing to the preop diet but days before it finally clicked for me and I'm doing great now.

This won't be easy but it'll sure as hell be worth it to improve your quality of life!

Keep your head in the game! Don't let small bumps get in your way. I know it's frustrating, but you are right there. It'll get done and you'll be sooo much better for sticking through it.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
