December Sleevers??



Recommended Posts

Just spoke with my surgeon's office this morning and as long as my last two appointments go ok next week (I'm sure they will) my surgery will be December 20th or 27th. I'm really pushing for the 27th to tie it in with my holiday days off and she said it will probably be no problem since a lot of people want before or after holidays... not during.

So excited!

I am now tentatively on the books for Dec 4th. I am so nervous ... I wont believe it until Im actually in the O.R. This has been such a long journey so far. I had my info meeting in January of this year. Last week they scheduled me for Nov 14th and then they moved me to Dec 4th. I hate to get my hopes up anymore.



They did me the same way. Originally i was set for Nov 21st then they rescheduled for Dec 4th

Hi all! Set for Dec 29. Fresno CA. I had a surgical hysterectomy last January. I’ve gained 45 pounds. Overweight to begin with. Dear Lord, I pray this will help me.

I got my date! December 21. I'm kinda bummed because my insurance company messed around approving my surgery and it caused me to wait until late December because the surgeon's calendar filled up for November. I'm upset too because my BFF started this process with me and she got approved in 3 days! Her surgery is November 29. So I'm excited, but now I have to wait another 45 days until my surgery.

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
