7_5_142.gifwelcome Melissa..I had to have someone walk me thru putting my ticker on. So someone else will have to help you there. As far as replying to some ones threads (like yours) just click on reply at the end of all the replys. When your reply screen comes up just type away. (you don't have to put anything in the subject line unless your starting a new thread.) When you are done typing just scroll down until you see submit reply and hit it.

Over on your left on the home page is all sorts of threads . They tell you what the general topic is about. Like post-op questions, mushy stage ect.. look thru them they are chock full of great info. Good luck on your journey

Melissa, Welcome. Go the the discussion forum page and then scroll down to frequently asked questions. Under the sub forums, go to forum frequently asked questions. There is all kinds of information there about how to do what.

My next peice of advice, is to take the time to look over this whole site. There is a lot of great information here. There are other sites as well that offer just as much information. Take your time and read, read, and read some more.

Good luc

The only way I could get the ticker to show up on this site was to cut and paste it from the site I built the ticker at. I tried to use the addresses that they have in the boxes at the bottom and it wouldn't take. I did the old cut and paste and it has worked since then.

        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
