yeah with clear liquids your blood sugar can dip down, and when mine starts going DOWN I get bone*** 😩 weary. I have no reserve of strength,so,weary -out quick.,Actually feel,like swooning but fight,it. a 300,pound woman swooning makes a distinct thump and I wouldn't want to,be responsible,for the Earths Mantle cracking.🌏

And now a few hours more until it is JUST,ONE DAY. And like a child,with a very large piles of gifts🎁📦 I can hardly,wait until it is time⏰to,unwrap them all! I am going to mentally record everything in my mind so I can journal each and every occurance.
Certainly,I do know many facets of ut,but,like,a large jigsaw puzzle, how do the pieces fit together? So I have been travelling Bariatric Pal, soaking up wisdom like a sponge. This will prepare me for the basics, but everyone is an individual so their experiences may vary but it will be personalized to ME.😜And I think that is just fine!

September 4 for me 😊 I was supposed to be in August but I decided to quit smoking too late and it ended up getting pushed to September. But I haven’t had a cigarette in a month! It’s so funny that I have been trying to quit for 2 years but when I’m told that I have to quit so that I can lose weight, I had no problem doing it.

Praying for you today. I hope all goes well.

      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.
