Start Preop diet today but my pug died yest



Recommended Posts

I am feeling very sad and depressed at this time. I would have pictured starting my preop diet as a time of being elated with happiness. However, my pug puppy for 9 months had to be put down due to congenital heart disease he was born with. That was not found out of until yest as i pleaded to convice the vet there was something wrong with my dog. I went ahead and started my diet but i am feel very depressed upset and sad. I know this was the best for cujo.

Thank you for listening

I am soooo sorry about your pup! I too am a pug owner and Belle is my companion, buddy and constant companion. I can imagine all to easily how hard this is for you. It's really hard now, I know. I can only hope that each day gets a little easier. You will always remember your pup and how much you loved your "baby" and with time, I hope that the memories are no longer tinged with sadness.

oh bella, i am so sorry for your loss! my heart goes out to you. I know its devistating to lose a pet, they are part of the family. Do your best on your preop diet and allow yourself to feel all the feelings u have, if u need to talk feel free to drop me a line.

Oh gosh, as a pet lover I can sympathize with you there!!!! That would be very depressing. I commend you on going ahead with your pre op diet.....you will be the better for it while starting under such a big issue the end will be very rewarding. I am still waiting on insurance approval but they do not see a problem so I will probably be right behind you soon. Our 16 year old cat died Christmas day last year... Hang in there and do this for you and just a suggestion here but maybe you could start a "memory album" right away and restore some good memories. It may help....

Oh that is awful, I am so sorry. I know they are like children and it is really hard, just allow yourself to go through the grieving process. It will be fine and you can do this! My prayers are with you. If you ever need support, please know we are here to support you.

I am so sorry. I know what it is like to lose my dog also. She was a fawn and black pug named Pugeta. She was my baby. That was 5 years ago and still to this day I have not gotten another pug. It would just be to painfull. I hope all gets better for and that you find this time in your life pleasent, even with the sadness. Jennifer

This is just terrible. Why is it when one thing goes right in life another goes wrong? I have two Boston Terriers. (I love smooshie faced piggy dogs.) Good luck to you with your surgery.

oh my word I am so heartbroken for you! I am so sorry! I am such a crazy animal lover and I would be beside myself if I were you. Hang in there, you are feeling bad now but I think you might end up feeling worse if you don't follow through with the pre op diet! I know it is the hardest thing to hear/do but from my experience I mourn the loss of my animal for far too long if I don't get another right away. Something to think about! You are in my thoughts!

      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
