Recommended Posts

Yeah, I had to have approval first before I got a date

We set a date and scheduled because having the tentative one gave me a date to tell docs/etc when I got the testing and stuff done. I know that if I don't have it Aug 1, it will be Aug 15. I'm grateful to know ahead of time. They also did some pre-qualifying stuff before I ever went in for the first appointment with the surgeon. Hopefully, everything goes smoothly when it comes time for my insurance to go through. My last appt is early July.

I had my 4th diet check up today. I'm down 20 pounds, and my doctor confirmed that June (already scheduled!!) will be the last one and then they will immediately submit, "So surgery in July!" Eeeeep that's so SOON!!!

Mine will be in July too! Was set for 7/10, but they called the other day. Moving it to either Thursday, 7/6 or Thursday, 7/13. Our WLS center here can do earlier, but I needed to book out to Mel's sure I have coverage at work.

Glad there are already others in July!

Oh, I'm from Salem OR.

My surgery date is July 17. It was a process to get to this point. I am happy but also shocked that I set for surgery. I am nervous already!

      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. 🤞
