Not to much longer for you. I remember how excited and nervous I was the last two weeks before my surgery. Hopefully time passes quickly for you and you will take your seat on the losers bench☺️

I had my surgery on May 15th. Monday will be 8 weeks and I have lost 23lbs. I weighed 233 in January and I lost 25 lbs pre-op down to 208. I am losing a little slow, but with my lower BMI it is normal. I am losing inches and I feel great!

I am excited for you!

July 31 is my Day and I can't wait I just want to be able to cross my legs yall

It'll be here before you know it! I can cross my legs for the most part but prefer not too. I am always reminded of blood circulation being cut off and spider veins for some reason. Lol. I do cross them from time to time though. Happy you're at the end, you'll be crossing soon. You having the sleeve?

July 31 is my surgery day, too. I've been on a practice diet since April 14, and have been on a very low calorie diet since June 19. This diet is mostly Protein Shakes and one lean & green meal. Some days are tougher than others, but it has been fun to feel the weight start to come off.

I'm nervous, though.

Prayers to you all. The beginning can be difficult with some days of uncertainty, but it's worth it. Remember everyone's recovery and progress is different. Monitor what you eat, how much Fluid you intake, and how much you workout. Make adjustments as needed. Remember extreme workouts is not always good. I read that alot of people workout 6 days a week, eat less than 1000 calories a day, etc. Which theres noting wrong with that, its just may not be the right course for everyone. Ive changed my routine and diet a few times since my surgery and thank GOD ive continue to be successful. When I stalled I adjust, when I have some type of difficulties I analyze whats going on and adjust. At 7 weeks I workout maybe 3 times a week for an hr, and I try to consume less than 50g of carbs and at least 100g of Protein. I think the most important things to remember is High Protein and fluids, low carbs, walk, sip slowly, and make adjustments as needed.

      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.
