Is anyone else locking at a dec/ Jan surgery date who wants to be friends and support each other.


I'm scheduled for December 30. I would love to become friends and keep in touch.[emoji4]

Me! Hi! I hope for a January date. I have one more session to attend, have to schedule my EKG, blood work, and see my primary dr. in December, plus I have to see a specialist regarding my kidneys, but I hope to be get cleared for January.

Hello! I am hoping for a December/January surgery date. I meet the surgeon this coming Monday but I have already completed all of my insurance requirements. I might be crazy in thinking I could have the surgery scheduled for the next month or two but I’m hoping!

I am scheduled for Dec 23rd! When he offered the date I didn’t even realize that it was just 2 days before Christmas, I was just so happy to have it scheduled!

Hi everyone. I'm scheduled for December 3rd and the anxiety is killling me. I've never had any surgery before and I'm second-guessing everything.

Hi I just found this app today. I am scheduled for Gastric Bypass Surgery on Dec 10th. I am from Ontario. Canada and my surgery is covered by my provinces health care plan. I see alot of people posting about waiting for insurance approval, that has to be stressful!

I’m hoping for a January date. Going to PR in March, so would love to have as many weeks as possible under my belt. Luckily we’re still in a Villa with full kitchen.

I'm scheduled for Dec 31. I was hoping for mid-December but have decided the date is meant to be and I can start the new decade with my new tool. Talk about a new years resolution :)

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
