I feel the same way! I finally all set to go for Aug 24. They wanted to schedule me in April but because of work I had to push it back. Now I am getting a little anxious.

I know just how you feel. My surgery was 7/5/17 and the closer it got I started second guessing myself, wondering if I should go through with it and supposed things didn't go right. I could barely sleep and I had the uncontrollable urge to just pig out and eat everything (which I managed to resist but not without a difficult struggle). Good luck with your surgery. Oh by the way, I had the sleeve.

That's how I am right now! I'm up all night thinking about it but I know it's in gods hands and we will all be okay! How were you feeling right after surgery?

My surgery is scheduled for 8/18/17 and I'm sooo nervous and excited at the same time! Has any one else had a bit of anxiety just thinking about it?! It's like I'm physically prepared but mentally have a bunch of mixed emotions![emoji30]


I am scheduled for 8/16. I need to lose about 200 pounds I have been carrying around for ten years. I am 63 with a host of medical problems. I started the liquid diet today as surgery is two weeks from now. Like you I am nervous. Considering my age, weight, mobility and alternatives, it calms me down. I am focusing on my desired outcomes and where I will hopefully be 18 months from now! Good luck to you!

      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.
