You can do this! It's truly the definition of mind over matter. When I was just a few days into my liquid only diet, I thought about the reason we have to do it. My Dr. wants my liver as small as possible so it's easier to get to the stomach. I definitely want to make his life easier when he's operating on me! This thought process really helped me through. I'm 11 days in and I can say it gets easier! Just take it one day at a time :) oh and get the caramel Premier Protein Shakes - they're heaven!

One more day and i will finally be able to add shakes back in. I have been 6 days Clear Liquids after surgery! I need some energy. It is funny how each dr has different guidelines. I got a strict one i guess!

Hi everyone - late comer here. I have my ESG scheduled for 9a tomorrow morning in NYC.

Now on one day of clear liquid before - total respect for all of you who have to do this longer than a day!

It'll be worth it in the end. Good luck! One test at a time, one step closer to the goal.

      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.
