Prayers incoming for you Nurse_Emily 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼. I am hopeful it will be short lived and all of this wickedness will leave our world soon.
Be strong, know you are loved and God will protect us.
This is one of the things I am concerned about as well. My surgery is in a week and in Seattle. I pray daily for Everything to be ok.
Sending you ❤️

I'm so excited...moving my surgery from 8/17 to 7/28, so officially a July sleever! Trying to prep everything I can think of and start my pre-op diet in 2 weeks. Two weeks Protein Shakes and Clear Liquids only beginning 7/14. I am so happy to read everyone's experiences so I can adjust my expectations.

Thanks hun. Yeah it's been rough working as a nurse during these times. I work in the isolation unit and I kind of figured it was coming.. but was still hopeful... I'm sure it will happen when it needs to happen... right now.. just a little worried with the spike in cases and working mandatory overtime.. its been rough

Hey guys love and strenght to you all.

i have my date july21st I am having the sleeve. We do a two week diet my starts sunday lots of Protein in meat or shake and 6 servings of vegetables a day, I found a garlic ad herb grinder seasoning from bjs that is amazing. I even purchased some pans that can cook and the food slides off into the pan without oil. I found I have to find ways to remindmyself to drink. I am going to make frozen popsicles from my protein drink.I purchased popsicle mold from Amazon. The biggest thing folks is to get that designated Fluid in. The misery is multiplied by dehydration.

remember We got this folks !

      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.
