Anyone having their sleeves being done on Feb.14,2018? Are you nervous? I'm guessing I would have to start my 14-day pre-op diet at the end of the month on the 31st? I also have about 3 pre-op appointments to go to... I'm thinking about taking 11 days off.. Would that be enough or too many days off?.. hmmm...

My surgery date is February 12th. I see my surgeon on Feb 1 and he should tell me when I'll be starting my pre-op diet. Last time I met with him he told me I was fine as far as weight loss.

My surgery is scheduled for February 15th. My doctor sent my diet yesterday that I will start on Feb 1st! I am nervous but extremely excited! I think I am going to take 2-3 weeks off.. Have not decided yet.

I still have yet to decide how many days I will take off. I have my pre-op diet paper already, I think I’m supposed to start on the 31st.

I'm RNY, not sleeve, but I'm 2/15 :) I told my husband we'll have to have a romantic Protein Shake dinner the night before since it's Valentine's Day :lol: I think I might also treat myself to a massage or something relaxing!

I am 15th Feb :-) can’t wait. We should keep each other updated with progress. I would love to stay in touch with people having surgery on or near the same date. X

Is there a way on here to create a chat group for people with the same surgery date? It would be comforting to know I have a group of buddies I can chat to who are going through the same thing at the same time.x

I'm not sure. You can probably create a thread for it.

      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.
