November 2018 Sleevers



Recommended Posts

Just got my surgery date....November 26th. It seems like forever away and I feel I have more time for panic and worry to set in. Any other November sleevers?

Knowing that there's a lot of us that feel like that I think we'll be okay try to hang in there!

I'm scheduled for November 6th. I'm excited but it still doesn't fell real. I meet with the surgeon next month and I'm afraid my insurance will change their minds and tell me I can't have the surgery.

I worry about that too, even though I'm sure it will go through. I started this journey in April and would be really mad if after 9 months I hit an insurance snag. but my friend used this surgeon and their office is on top of the insurance stuff so fingers crossed everything goes through. And I don't think mine's going to feel real until i have that pre-op appointment in the beginning of November that might be when it sets in for me.

      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.
