Hi ,

So my surgery date is 30.August .

Tomorrow I'm starting with my two week pre op diet - and hopefully it won't be too much of a struggle

I'm from Sarajevo , Bosnia and Herzegovina

Here it is not usual or common to do bariatric surgeries and I have no support system or community - hopefully I'll find support here

I have been in this process for two years and it finally get to the end of it .

My surgery is on Aug. 20th. I started my clear liquid diet yesterday. It was kind of tough yesterday, but seems to be better today. Good luck on your surgery!!

Thanks [emoji8]
My diet starts as of today
I know it will be tough until body accepts this new concept
Honestly - my body is not the problem my "hungry" mind is [emoji28]
Thanks for reaching out

Just found this thread!

CONGRATS on your surgery tomorrow and as soon as you feel up to it, please let us know how you’re doing.

My biggest piece of advice if you haven’t already is to find the thread for people having surgery in August/September so you can share advice and troubles together.

      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.
