Got my date



Recommended Posts

Hi Danna,

Just thought I would add my best wishes for tomorrow. I envy you and at this stage can only dream when my day will come. You will be fine. Good luck and tell us all about it when you get home.

Deb

thanks Deb and Sades,

It's strange thinking in hours instead of days, when I got a date it seemed so far away and now there is only one more sleep.

talk to you again when I get to the other side.

Thanks for all your thoughts - I am now on the other side (so to speak). Had my surgery late yesterday afternoon and spent an uncomfortable night in ICU and have now been relocated to a ward where I will spend tonight and hopefully get some sleep.

Will write more latter - getting a bit tired now.

:whoo::whoo:Glad to hear that you have come out of it okay. I hated the hospital... you'll feel much better when you are back in your own bed. Look forward to chatting about your experience. :whoo::whoo:

Danna, Great to see you are now banded after what must have seemed like for ever counting down. Rest up and take things easy. Looking forward to hearing about your progress.

Hi Debz,

I'm doing great -haven't had a fill yet but go back to see about that on 9/1. Was lucky to be back on normal foods for Chrissie, though ate more than I should. The good thing though, was that I didn't eat anywhere near what i would have done last year. So while I haven't lost anything over Christmas I haven't gained anything either, so for this time of year that has to be a plus.

Anyway, back onto the proper eating plan now and I hope to have lost more weight by my appointment date.

How's everything going for you?

Hi Danna,

Great to hear you are doing so well. For me it is still a waiting game. I have my first appointment with the surgeon on the 15th of April and hope to have a date the minute my insurance kicks in in June. I just can't wait, it seems like forever away.

Debz,

Waiting is the pitts!!! At least when you see the Dr in April you will be able to book your op so that you can be banded as soon as the insurance kicks in.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
