Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
In a gastric sleeve surgery or vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG), the surgeon removes most of your stomach and forms the rest into a tube-shaped sleeve from your throat to your small intestine. These forums are for sleevers, potential sleevers and revisional sleevers! Talk about the VSG diet, nutritional supplements, weight loss and sleeve complications.

I have my consultation on Thursday. I’m excited but nervous! My insurance requires a 6 month program before surgery so that’s a bummer.· 5 replies

Awesome! You're making a step. If you think of it as a lifelong change, then these 6 months are just a part of the journey. Wishing you all the best!
-
Congratulations! Take that six months to really appraise your relationship with food. It’s more of a mind game post surgery than many think, at least in my opinion. Head hunger is an issue for me and it’s a lot of work reframing my mind (I didn’t do a lot of introspection prior to my surgery and it’s slowing down my progress post-surgery). Best of luck on your journey!!!

Those 6 months, if used wisely, will turn out to be a blessing. Use the time to get your head on straight, make some small changes that will benefit you after surgery and lay the prep work for what you'll need later. I really think lurking around here before my surgery really helped as I've felt really prepared for whatever has come my way.

Like you I was so disappointed to have to wait 6 months for my surgery. Now I'm a week away from surgery though I'm not going to lie - there were times I really resented the 'delay' during the last 6 months. Even though I thought I was ready, knew all I needed to, didn't need to take that time to figure things out or make changes... that time actually was well spent. Time will pass, and soon you'll be a week out and thinking you just need a few more days to get things ready! You got this.

My consultation went great The surgeon said I am a perfect candidate for Bypass but not the sleeve due to Acid Reflux. They scheduled every single thing I need to do during this six months. The journey starts now!
