Paula~ It'll be here before I know it!!! I hope it goes as good as my gallbladder surgery did. If so I should be in good shape! I went back to work 4 days after surgery. No nausea,shoulder pains etc.. I felt lucky that it went so smoothly. 1 down 1 to go!

I'll succeed~ It has been a long road for me too! I know how you feel but your day will come. I've been working on this since 1st of Oct and then had to get delayed because of my stupid gallbladder. Otherwise I would have my band already. Oh well all things happen for a reason.I just look at it that my band has already helped me in more ways than one. I would have not known for a long time that I had gallbladder problems except it was found in pre op tests while looking into getting banded.

For me and you both it will be well worth the wait!! Good luck on getting approved!!

      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. 🤞
