Just got my surgery date. Mine will be on the 28th and I only have to do one week of preop liquid diet. Nervous but excited to be joining the Losers Bench.

Hi everyone! I am also April 13th! Day two of the full liquid diet! I chose gastric bypass for my journey because of my Gerd! Full liquid diet requirements are quite strict and is really terrible in my opinion. Just getting by and convincing myself it could be worse! Let me know how you are all doing where you are at in your process! Headed to the pre op appointment with the Doc now. Have a wonderful day! I am Deena ,51 Ohio!

I also have gerd but my surgeon said the sleeve would be better for me, I wander why the difference?

So my surgery was the 12th. It went well but it took longer than expected as my lapband didn't want to come out. I had to stay overnight at the hospital. My surgery didn't start till almost 4pm. I have 3 weeks of liquids ahead of me. Looking forward to new adventures!

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
