LJM...I love the fact that you are going to do the "pampering day" b/4 your surgery. Good for you!!!!!!!!! Just want to wish you good luck with your surgery. We all deserve to wake up in the body we thought we would have when we started this process. I, too, will some day need TT and who knows what else. I am yet to be banded, have lost 40lbs pre-op and can already see the hanging apron.

Happy Anniversary and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers on surgery date. You will do just fine

Get on the Z pack A.S.A.P., get your fluids, get some extra rest, don't kill the Damned Husband, and calm down. A couple of days can mean a lot of healing.

Sending good thoughts your way :biggrin: I saw on the other thread that you woke up early and couldn't sleep. I know the nerves are kicking in at this point. You talked about freaking out your in laws. Thats great. I hope you get the same look on your face that my wife says I did when I first looked down and saw my results. She said it was priceless. Wishing you a quick and illness free week :biggrin:

LJM: Bother, bother and more bother! Sorry about your DH. Funny thing is, I am also on a Z Pack. Have a head cold and sore throat and my doc said to take it just to be safe. I'm praying it kicks in! Earth life can be such a trial! Remember: Breathe, Believe and Be Happy! I keeping telling myself this. Good luck!

breathe (thats a toughie), believe (yikes), be happy ... that i can do... later. :biggrin:

im really quite bitchy today...

the good news is, i called my PCP and she said i can double up on the Z pack, so that's a good thing...

bad news, im completely unfilled and have gained a couple of pounds. im making poor choices and it needs to stop.

hope you are feeling better soon, karey.

      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
