That super sucks. I have Aflac on top of my regular insurance and they paid me like $2,500 just for a day surgery to have my lap and removed.

Oh no, that sounds awful! You'd think they could make a freaking exception... it's not your fault it was postponed. Ugh... I am going to hope that you are able to get in under the wire!

I had my gastric bypass on Nov. 2. Before surgery I purchased some “Better than Bullion “ to use as broth. I also got vegan Protein Powder and several juices, bariatric Vitamins and miso Soup.< br> The surgery was much easier than I expected. My doctor performed robotic surgery. I was nervous before surgery but it was so easy.
I’m in the Liquid Protein phase now. I make my own shakes since I cannot tolerate commercial Protein Drinks and I vegan.

I purchased 200 1 oz cups with lids to portion out my drinks and easy to take when I go out.

Which Protein powder are you using? I have been using vega sport and I'm not a fan. Were you able to find sugar free juice? I was told juice isn't allowed.

Yes. Thank you for asking. I feel better and better each day. I’m still a little lightheaded and have to rest most of the day, but I feel so much better. I have lost 13 pounds since Friday. I’m sure it will slow down once I can eat more. How are you feeling?

I’m in Vegas - hungry, sleep deprived due to jet lag and waiting for my first day of appointments at Blossom Bariatrics. Surgery on Saturday.

Good morning! I’m doing well! Thank you for asking. I am able to drink and eat full liquids without much problem. Still super tired and napping a lot during the day. Getting up and walking as much as possible. Sending you healing thoughts. 🥰

I am not sure if the hunger or sleep deprivation was the worst. I was a mess before surgery. Good luck for your surgery on Saturday. Just a few days to go! Sending positive thoughts. 🥰

        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
