Hey DeLarla,

I'm still new to all of this.....been reading/posting for about a month or so. I'll be banded this Monday. I love reading your posts jammed packed with your quick wit.

The reason I am writing is this: I'll be in Las Vegas attending a conference April 24-26. I remember reading that you live there, does anyone else? Thought maybe we could get together in my off time? I won't be able to attend the Big Bash y'all are planning....but would love to meet anyone that's close to the area.

Daisypooh, I don't know how I missed this thread. It should have showed under "New Posts" but I never saw it. I'm always happy to meeting new Bandsters. Just think, this time next week you'll be on the road to recovery! I wrote the date in my calendar, and I look forward to seeing you! Good luck with your surgery.

Great, I've been renamed along with Jammin'....Leave it to DeLarla. Daisypooh...wait til I tell my hubby that I'm going to be a "breath of fresh air" to be around!

Is it really as bad as you all say...the gas????

Lisa, who else (if any) on the board are from your area? I'll be starting REAL food the week I go to LV. Scary!

I love the name Daisy Doodle. There's nobody else from this board in Vegas, but there is a small Vegas board. I've only met a couple of really nice girls, but I don't know them well. I could ask them if they wanted to meet for lunch while you're here though, my little Pooh Pooh.

The gas is really bad, but mine aren't usually of the offensive nature. They're loud but usually non-toxic.

I think that it would be great to meet for lunch. I've enjoyed reading your posts so much. And don't worry----nothing you've ever written has OFFENDED me! But if you have a major BLOW OUT while we are in public that might be a different story! :)

Daisy, the pen is mightier than the sword... I don't air dirty laundry in public! Well, unless I'm drunk, but I'm a happy drunk so you have nothing to fear.

        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
