Any news on Diane?



Recommended Posts

Hey Melissa...I actually just talked to her. She is on the good drugs but doing well. She said she was in pain but knows it was a good thing for her. She said her nerves were calm and she has lost 15 pounds on her pre op diet. She will be getting up and walking tomorrow....

If I talk to her tomorrow... I will keep you posted.

Are you talking about Diane Beck? If so, I heard from her. That girl has spunk! Even after everything she's been through, she still has an amazing sense of humor and a terrific outlook.

Lisa, Melissa is asking about Dianne (Sunsett), who was banded today in Charlotte, NC. BUT, thanks for the Diane Beck update! So glad to hear she is doing well...fully recovered, I'm assuming? I'd love to know more...on another thread? LOL I'll go hunting now for more info :)

:Bunny Spoke with Dianne and she's doing just fine. Came thru the surgery with flying colors. She was being a real trooper this evening and gave me a blow by blow on her experience. Told me have no fear on Friday. She was thinking she might want to stay an extra night - at least that's how she's feeling right now. She wants you guys to know she OKAY:). Take care everyone, if I get anymore info I will share. Bye for now.

You will be fine...really. Went home just after 24 hours in there. I couldn't rest there and I just wanted to get home in my own bed and my own place. I am sure you will do great....

Starr....girl the countdown is on!!!!

Hello everyone, I spoke with Dianne this evening and she is doing well and in good spirit her second night stay. She sound much better too without all the drugs in her. She's amazed at the amount of food it takes to get her full.

I'm getting a little nervious. I'm going back and forth thinking maybe I can do it on my own because I lost 10lbs so far. But that was short lived when I remembered I can't control my portion size on my own. So Friday it is - can't come soon enough for me. Thanks for all the well wishes.

        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
