Hello. Tomorrow is my psych visit. I'm not sure how I feel. I'm excited because it will be another appointment I can mark off my list but also nervous of the unknown. I've already seen the cardiologist and I don't have to do a stress test! I did have to do an echo and will get the results this upcoming Monday 8/28. I'm being positive that he will clear me. I don't have my pulmonologist visit until late Sept. I'm on the 3 month multi supervision plan with Aetna but with my pulmonologist appt being so late is making it more like 4 months. But I'm just educating myself in this time. I'm excited! I need this for my health and to be more active with my kids. Thx for this forum...I just needed to get this out.

My appt went really well. She said she doesn't have a problem giving me the go ahead for the surgery. she suggests I look for a class on managing my stress. I'm happy the appt is done. Not bad at all. On to the other appts on my pee on list...😊

So glad it went well!! I have my psyche eval this Thursday! I'm not too nervous because I've been working on dealing with/overcoming my food addiction/binge eating disorder and I've been doing really well... but it's always a little nerve wracking!

      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.
