I am getting really nervous- I almost backed out yesterday but was reminded of all the health reasons I'm having the surgery

Don't back out! You can do it! I think the next 6 months are going to be hard, but once we get through that I think it will get easier. I look forward to shopping at Nordstrom next summer for the anniversary sale, and finally, finally, FINALLY being in regular sizes! I haven't been in non-plus sizes for over 40 years.

Please quote this post and respond only with your surgery date. Quote the last person who responds as that will carry all our dates in one post. Curious to see if the chain would work. Thanks for trying. [emoji16]

Surgery date: Friday, 11/6

Surgery date: Friday, 11/13 (Goulagal)

Surgery date: Monday, 11/2 (VickieRenee)

Also, I had to cut and paste because when I tried to quote the last post. I know that's been said but I"m repeating as I haven't figured out how to delete posts...

I'm Nov. 2.

Thank you! I'm not - came to my senses last night after speaking with a friend who is an MD. He talked me off a ledge. I KNOW it's the best thing for me and I want it, but I think it hit me all at once. My first appointment was 9/22 - I honestly didn't expect to be scheduled so soon (which is a blessing) but I started panicking about thanksgiving (first one post divorce) and a bunch of other things that aren't nearly as important as my health.

I'm glad your MD friend helped you through that moment. Our body deserve to be in a healthy state and this surgery will help deliver that. You got this! Like Novice said, once you get through the initial hard period, you'll love the shopping! I'm really looking forward to that. Oh, and being healthy...😜

This may be silly but, but aside from all the great health benefits, I look forward to washing my feet and trimming my toenails without a struggle! LOL Also, wearing dresses. I LOVE dresses, but never wear them like I use to. Anyone else wants to share anything they're looking forward to?

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        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.

      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
