Hello Frustr8
I'm having the sleeve done in Riverside Ca at Riverside Community Hospital. I have been following a few people and most of my questions have been answered so far. Thanks for the welcome [emoji6]

That's okay, offer still holds good for post surgery questions also. An example-my hospital,wants me to,go on a 6 meal diet, well really 3 meals 3 Snacks, no more than 2.5-3 hrs between, I drew a temporary blank on good lower cal snacks. One of our veterans weighed in and gave me some good advice.We all need help at times.

I am on day 2 of my liquid diet. Not too bad but I find that I am not liking broth as much as I did with my sleeve lol. Still going to have some spoonfuls because I like the warm taste. I purchased some Unjury Broth but wanted to save that for post-op but I may have to crack her open

i just find that I have to keep myself busy to not think about food which is helping. Premier Protein rtd’s keep me full as well which is good

      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.
