Thank you all! I haven't been nervous at all until now. I think it's finally hitting me that this is actually happening, but of course I know this is exactly what I need so I'm also excited. Hopefully all goes well😊

I know exactly how you feel! I'm the same. The only way I've been able to cope is by reading the successful posts on line. This helps me soooo much and turns my negative thoughts into positive. Mine isn't until the 26th, but I'm already having sleepless nights scared and anxious. But you can do this. Change is difficult... but this is going to be a magnificent change to our lives. We just need to focus on how much better our health will be. Wishing you all the very best xx

You are not alone. I'm less than 2 days out from surgery and woke up sobbing this morning from a nightmare I had last night. I'm having trouble getting my pre-op liquid diet down because my stomach is so in knots. I have no second thoughts and am excited, but I'm scared. And thats ok- it's normal.

Sleeved April 4th, everything went fine. Blood count dropped a little so spent 2 nights in hospital but I think that is good, the rest helps.

already tired of liquid diet though, having some hot Jello now just to change it up a little.

good luck to everyone!! 👍👍

I don't have my exact date yet, but I will be April as well!

I have my endoscopy next Tuesday which I'm not looking forward to. After that, they'll give me an official April sleeve date!

I go for my final pre op this Thurs, 4/13 & my sleeve surgery is 4/17. I am allowed 1 small meal daily & 2 Protein  shakes. I am already at my required weight for surgery. I am afraid of eating too much before my surgery.

Mines is April 17 also

      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.

      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.
