My surgery is scheduled for July 13th!

Ooo you are Lenox Hill. Can you tell me what made you go there over others? I am just a habit person so I stuck with NYU but I heard great things and see you are doing DS. I am july 26th the SADI-S at NYU Brooklyn with Dr. Fareed Cheema and my original Sleeve was Dr. Bradley Scheck from NYU.

Excellent! I am doing SADI-S with Dr Roslin, but not at Lenox Hill. He also practices out of Northern Westchester Hospital. The bariatric doctor that I saw recommended him and I read one of his papers published on the Lenox Hill website. Once I understood his rationale behind preferring the SADI-S surgery, I made my decision. It's nice to meet another SADI-S patient!

@RedE2goAimee Thank you so much for the encouragement. You are so right. The path I had before this has caused a lot of negative things in my life. This life changing event will definitely be for my good.

How are you feeling post-surgery?

I had mine on July 5. Was in the hospital over nite. Had to have something for pain and nausea the first night. Thought I was dying when I woke up from recovery but that was the meds nothing to do with surgery. At home taking it easy Dr. Sent me home with pain meds something for nausea and heartburn. So far have not had to take any of them. Today (Saturday) is the first day I can actually think of drinking anything like a Protein Shake. But I will say all I can think about is egg rolls. Don’t know why just keeps popping up in my head.

I appreciate the update. So glad you're doing well! Really funny about the egg rolls. That's pretty specific. I wonder if someone was talking about them during your surgery. LOL. Hope you're continuing to do well!

Hello everyone, I just had my surgery July 7th! We got this!

It must be nice to have the surgery (and that pre-op diet!) behind you. How are you feeling, ErinMonica?

      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.
