My surgery is scheduled for January 21st and I get more excited every day. I can’t wait to start this journey and lose this extra weight. I’m on my pre-op diet now and it’s not too bad so far but it’s definitely going to be an interesting almost-three weeks until my surgery date.

I had my surgery yesterday. Dr. said everything went great. Surgery took 40 minutes.

A little soreness, but that is as expected. Going home from the hospital tomorrow am.

If I may offer some advice....Keep your Protein levels high or you'll start to cannibalize muscle.

My dr and nurse have not mentioned anything about a liquid diet just yet.

My VSG surgery is on the 24th and have meeting with surgeon on the 17th . Maybe it will be mentioned then?

Anxious about the pre op diet. Feel like I'm saying goodbye to carbs

My surgery date is 1/21 and I have been on my pre diet then the liquid diet 6days before my surgery! Excited and nervous can’t wait for the day to come and everything be ok.

You'll be fine. I started liquid diet again at the hospital. dinner includes:

broth, sugar free Jello, tea and Water with a crystal lite packet.

Not liking broth and not a hot tea drinker.

I get full on a jello and some crystal light.

When I go home tomorrow, I can include clear Premier Protein

      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. 🤞
