Trish - Try to quit thinking about it so much! I wish I lived closer, I'd come and keep you too busy to think about it! :D:D:D

You will be just fine, (that is if you don't break your back with all that luggage) and will be on here telling us how great you are doing.

Trish....my surgery is the day after your's and I'm actually feeling more calm than I was. Not sure why but darn glad of it! I think I'm just so ready to start my new healthy life! I read all the positive posts on here and look at before and after pictures whenever I start getting any nerves or doubts and that seems to help me. Also, I look at a picture of my precious little 9 month old granddaughter and know how much more fun I'll be able to have with her once I get this weight off! Anyhow, good luck Trish! Things are going to be great for both of us! Hang in there, it really is going to be fine!

Trish,

I am sorry you are feeling so nervous an upset about your WLS coming up. I look forward to meeting you on Thursday, what time do you check in and what time is your surgery? I have to be there by 9AM, and surgery at 11:30. I am feeling somewhat nervous, but also very excited. I will say a prayer for you that, God will give you peace about this, so you enjoy looking forward to getting it done.

Debbie

      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.

      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.
