Recommended Posts

I go in for surgery on Monday you guys!! Yes!!!! I am soooo nervous and excited! My surgery is scheduled for 6am. I am the first on the surgery schedule!

I guess it helps to be an employee and have friends in surgery(wink). My mom says thatI should not be nervous(she is a nurse) because this is something that I want very much I say anesthesia is scary! LOL I am so glad that I have yall for support!. I stopped by the nutritionalist's office and purchased my Protein drinks. The name is PROTI MAX they taste really good! Well please keep me in your prayers and thoughts on Monday at 6am. I know that you all will be there with me in spirit. Thanks!! I love you guys!!!

Congrats!

Something that might help you with the anesthesia part is telling the anesthesiologist the truth about your fear. I did and it went a lot smoother, he was extra nice to me and told me everything he was going to do.

C-ya on the losing team! :)

DEE DEE: Good luck and everything will be just fine. I will say an extra prayer for you that morning. Aren't you excited though? I know I was the day of my surgery. I was also slightly nervous as well. Then I woke up and all was well.

HUGS DEE DEE

      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.
