Hi everyone!
I'm having my surgery on the 21st. Still have to get cleared by cardiologist and PCP . my surgeon did not put me on a pre- op diet however.. Just told me to remain on current diet. I feel like I want to put myself on one since this is 1 week to surgery date.
Congrats to Everyone I wish you all the best on our new journey ! I'm a bit nervous lol

Hello,
No pre op diet? Cool , if you've already been dieting maybe Dr feel like your liver has already shrunk. Pray your other Dr's are all onboard with this process for you. Reading some of these forums some are not. I will be one day your senior as I go in on the 20th. My dr office has the meal plan for you to eat you just purchase it from the nutritionist . I though that was awesome for me. 870 calories a day, Lord give me strength!!

Congrats to you as well!!!! Our New Journey begins!

      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.
