Just got my date of April 4th with Dr. Illan! I'm surprised and thankful they were able to get me in so soon!

Are those of you on the 3rd and 4th with Dr. Illan too? I'd love to find a surgery buddy!

I'm scheduled with Dr. Almanza for 4/6....after reading some posts, I've decided to switch. Unfortunately, I already paid the deposit, or I'd be switching services altogether.

Trying to switch to Dr. Hernandez. Can anyone tell me anything about him????

The prices in the USA are incredibly higher and you have to jump through fiery hoops. I have no co-morbidities, which meant even harder to qualify. Then my ins decided to exclude all bariatric services.

I decided I'd waited long enough.

      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. 🤞
