My surgery date was tomorrow. I have been postponed because I got sick. Def. wanna be 100% at surgery. So, I guess everything happens for a reason. New date is October 28.

I am ready to do the liquid diet all over again, lol.

A stupid sinus infection. Just to the last of my antibiotics today but i still feel really crappy. Just was too scared to attempt surgery like this. My nurse thought it was a bad idea too. Murphy's friggin' law gets me everytime, lol. I gotta laugh or I'll cry. I getta do the stupid liquid, liver shrinking diet all over again, lol. Oh well. October 28 it is. At least I am still getting to do it before month end : ) My little boy is 18months.

I really think you made the right decision. You will go through surgery just fine BUT the better you feel before the easier it will be once done. God bless. :wink2:

Wll you now have plenty of time to get better before the 28th .... how long do you have to do the liquid diet? My husband will have to do it again too....he was scheduled last week but they canceled him due to a bloodwork result that showed he might be getting sick....he still has not gotten sick. Its a bummer.

        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
