Anyone like to talk? My surgery is in 4 short days...... Sleeve to RNY.....aaaaagggrrrrhhhhh.... it’s going too fast and too slow at the same time. Nervous happy scared, nervous, did I say nervous? Would love to chat like by phone? Anyone who has gone through this or getting ready to? If so please InBox me and maybe we can pick a time and just talk. Family is wonderful and all, but they can’t possibly understand how one needs to Psyc up to go in for this. But you all do. Anyhow, just in need of a buddy or two or ten :)

I’m having my sleeve surgery on August 28th, just a in few days . I started my liquid pre op diet yesterday and I was doing well until I got up this morning vomiting my brains out, so bad I wound up in the ER , they told me I was having caffeine withdrawal because I didn’t wean myself. Has anyone experienced this? By the way I’m only having my Protein Shakes, Jello, ice pops , broth and Water. Can I have plain yogurt?

Never had @bubula but then again I don’t do caffeine and only have 2 day pre op diet. 1. Mushie and 2. Liquid with bowl prep. These things are so different... go figure :/

all LL I can think is good thing you are withdrawing now and not cold turkey post surgery

Hi Chris - thank you hun I appreciate it. Surgery went well, I’m in recovery now. Shared room which sucks lol. The pain is not fun... they need to give me something other then morphine. (Morphine has never really did much for me anyhow). Hoping this subsides soon though

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
