Ok - I think I'm caught up!

Since the member list is getting really long, I've updated it to put the completed surgeries in a separate column.

We have so many completed surgeries - I can't wait to hear how it's going for everyone!

@Ylime... the list has me completed April 28th..unfortunately that didn’t happen,they canceled my surgery 10 mins prior to going into the operating room, i broke out with hives on my stomach and waist.😩

so now I’m rescheduled for July 30th ...fingers crossed 🤞

no more hives from nerves!!! 😬

That doesn’t look too bad. What is a blended diet? I have a progression of Clear Liquids to full liquids then puréed and softy foods before regular foods. Each phase is one week.

      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. 🤞
