Well, they finally called yesterday with my surgery date. So on the 25th at noon they'll go in and fix my port or tubing. Please send healing thoughts my way. Thanks. :lol:

Ezma you are definitely in my thoughts and prayers. I'm so sorry you are having to go through this additional surgery but hopefully everything will go smoothly and you will be back on track again soon. At least it's good to know there is a reason why you were having difficulty and it can be fixed! Gotta look for the bright side!

Good luck and let us know how it goes as it is still possible for any of us to have to go through the same procedure.

Yeah, I had started one called "Oh what a beautiful morning" when I thought I was going in for my fill. But surprise, surprise....when he tried to fill me he couldn't get any saline in or out of my band. He thinks it's a kinked tubing problem or a port malfunction. Either way, they are gonna go in and fix or replace it. I was majorly bummed when I found out, now I'm okay. I'm just having some hard days staying on track with my food. I'm just hoping they won't have to start all over with my fills. I was just about at a good spot. Even now I have some restriction but I just found out I can eat a whole beef and cheddar from Arby's - Dang it! :sad: Still losing slow and steady though.

Thanks to everyone for your well-wishes. Helps a lot to know I have you guys there.

      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. 🤞

      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.
