All I know is now that I am on full liquids, that gnawing feeling is gone, thank goodness.

That's great!

Yeah, I really don't get it. Yesterday I had Tomato Soup I had gotten from my band doctor. I was so full after that I could not even drink Water until about 4 pm. I felt like I

had eaten a turkey dinner and went back for 2nds. I really don't get it. The Tomato Soup was not thick. It's just about the same consistency as all the Protein Drinks I have been drinking, and has the same amount of Protein grams. I finally got to feel like what a sleeve is supposed to feel like.

VegasAngel, I apologize for not calling. I was really running around like a crazy woman as hubby was coming home for the weekend, plus trying to get my loose ends tied up as we leave early Tuesday morning.

Butterflies in the tummy now.

I totally understand. I'm envious you get to leave on Tuesday and I have another 17 days before heading out of Vegas ... give me a call when you get home, when you feel up to it, and you can fill me in on how the surgery went, etc. I know everything will go great and we'll be two more hotties in LV before we know it!!!

God's speed! Just tell your hubby not to drive faster than your Guardian Angels can fly :sad::lol:

I am so glad we are going to be going through this around the same time. . I'm at 10 days and counting.

I wanted to let you know that I'll be contacting you know who, after surgery. I can't get all wrapped up in extra stuff right now. But, did want to keep you updated! ! !

I'm so excited for both of us. . .

I'M THRILLED AND EXCITED (FOR BOTH OF US, RUTHI, AND WHOEVER ELSE IS LOOKING AT SURGERY) ... It will be fun to compare notes ... and it's great to have the knowledge and experience of WASa, Mac, Susan, Elizabethsew and OregonDaisy too .. best of both worlds ...

Just be sure you don't wait too long to contact you know who -- however, I totally understand not being able to put bore on your plate right now; just be sure it's on the menu!

Take care and keep in touch!

        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
