Dawn.. That is the best news. I'm happy you got your date. I've decided not to wish you luck, because you don't need it... You have this in the bag and I know you are going to breeze through the pre-op diet and surgery. Keep us all posted.

Congrats!!!!!!!!:) :teeth_smile:

I am new to all of this and trying to get everything paid thru my Blue Shield HMO. Can you give me some pointers how to get it approved. I qualify as far as my weight goes but have no health problems (YET).

Hi! I am new to this site as a member, but I have been reading for awhile. I have been approved and have a surgery date of 11/21/2008 at 7:30 a.m. It has been a long process for me. Two years ago, I started the weightloss part of the process, but quit after three months. I started over this year in April and will have surgery on the 21st. Right now, I have seen a pulmonologist, have appts. with a cardiologist, hematologist and vascular surgeon, before surgery. Wish me luck and any encouragement would be much appreciated. My whole family knows and my husband says he will have to eat in the garage before long. Any pearls of wisdom for me?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      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
