November 13th for DS...anxious not worried...ready to do this...started the process with another surgeon last year but my insurance changed the first of the year and I had to switch surgeons and go through the whole process all over.

That’s a bummer! It’s such a long process! Can I ask why you chose the DS?

Max weight loss as well as best health benefits long term...it was the surgery I was looking at before I spoke to either of the surgeons and was the surgery both suggested.

I was just curious as it isn’t presented as an option here. It’s great that you have a date after going through it twice.

Overall, it hasn’t been as hard as I expected it to be.

That's good to hear! I like Water too. Hopefully that will go away- especially considering how much of it we have to drink! I'm up to bat tomorrow!

Hi everyone! I am scheduled for my sleeve gastrectomy on Nov.11th. I was told I only need to do 3 days of pre-op clears diet. So I was relieved I don't have to do it as long. I've got like Bone Broth, sugar free Jello, sugar free flavors to add to Water. Any ideas for other things to drink?1018201352a.jpg

Doing pretty good- thanks for asking! Rough afternoon on the 4th but woke up at 4am on the 5th feeling a lot better. Still really sore but that's to be expected. Most difficult? No Water until Thursday afternoon!!! So, so happy the surgery is in the rear view mirror!!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
