It was actually not bad at all. Def sore (like you got punched or worked out hard) and it felt like really bad gas pains at the top incision for me. Day 5 and I’m having much less gas pain and overall ok,

Crazy but the scale says down 7 lbs?! Not hungry at all- hard to drink everything you need to

Girl trust I understand. It took them 3 weeks to approve mine. I called them though and she told me I was approved before I received the letter. So call and get on they nerves lol



Lol ... I called every other day. Then the day I decided to wait & not call I got the letter.. A couple of days later the surgeon’s office called ans scheduled my 4 hour class, my pre-op appointment & my surgery all at once!! They wanted to schedule me for Jan 10 th!!’ But I need to tie up stuff at work & find someone to fill in for me so I settled on February 6th... I’m soooo excited!

      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.

      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.
