Heya Ladyroz! I am with you on the 7th. I am very very excited as well. However, I think today a twinge of nervousness has struck. I dont know why cause I haven't worried at all for the 4 months I have been pursuing this. Oh well, 72 more hours and I can look back on my nervousness and laugh. My new life is soon to begin! Looking forward to hearing how everything goes for you!

Don't be scared David!!! You are making a wonderful choice. I'll let you know how my surgery goes tomorrow. I'm a little scared, but more excited about the internal tool I will now have to control my hunger. I've been very successful losing weight several times (up to 100 lbs), but I've never been able to keep it off and it comes back with 30 more friends (lbs) each time. Take Care and I'll keep you posted after my surgery tomorrow. I'm having it at GW Hospital in Washington, DC and they are keeping me overnight.

I should have been banded since nov 20, however many hurdles have been place in my way. I intend to 'ovahkum' all of them. Tomorrow (7th Jan. 08) is the date and i can't say that I am as excited as you guys are, (having done this twice already). I am just anxious to get it behind me. All the best to all of us and see you all on the other side of surgery.

David - I'm home from my surgery. Everything went as expected. I'm a little sore and tired, but feel very good considering I just had surgery yesterday. It wasn't bad at all. Are you staying the night at the hospital, or coming home the same day?

      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. 🤞
