Don't forget to ask your insurance if the hospital pharmacy is allowed to be used to fill your prescriptions.

Being excited is good! It's a good positive emotion for what you're about to do, and is much more productive than trepidation!

You got this--post often and let us know what's going on.

Your more than welcome. I've been trying to prepare for any problems for my RNY surgery tomorrow. I'm sure I haven't gotten everything but I should be close. Maybe! Best of luck.

I started my journey last February at my PCP office. It's been a long lonesome road till my wife got on board. She saw me dropping weight then hey let's do this together. She has lost around 25 and I lost 57 and 6 " off my waist so far.

Update guys..

So! Tuesday I saw the surgeon, really cool lady. She said that she believes surgery is medically necessary, and would also like me to do a sleep study. This morning I had my first meeting w/ the dietitian and with a nurse just to go over any concerns or anything. I'm SO EXCITED! My insurance said I have no waiting period, so they say after my Psych in March, my paperwork will be submitted. I'm hoping ALL goes well!

      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
