    Hi Summer People, just lying here on my bed waiting for God or a bathroom urge to make me get up. And when I have nothing much to do I go,lurk on other forums. One of the threads I'm seeing often is buyers remorse. People,often sleevers but I am sure bypasses aren't immune, a few days or weeks after surgery are saying OMG what did I just do to MYSELF? Do you think this will happen to you and if it does, how are you going to handle it? Just putting it out on the floor for discussion.👈👼👉
    This is honestly the one thing I am the most terrified of (probably more than dying). I really hope this doesn’t happen to me but the permanence of this surgery freaks me out sometimes. Although, everyone I have ever met that had it loves it and says it was the best section of their life. I don’t know. Just hoping for the best at this point and trying to stay positive.

    @KCgirl061 @insomebodyelseslake @anjeljuliette @genevao @CTGirl08 @hinton38607 @Ladybabs@g.elisabeth - I've added you all to our member list!




    @Auroragirl4489 @Luzbella - I've added you to the list, but I didn't see where you may have an estimated date. I you think you know when it might be scheduled, let me know!


    Dumb question but what list? Also I don’t know if got added to it but my date is August 23rd for the sleeve. ☺️

    Hey! Welcome to the crew and congrats on your date! You will eventually feel hunger again, maybe not as intensely but you will feel it. As I said to someone else on this thread, do no second guess yourself. You went through this process for a reason, you decided on this tool for a reason. You’ve got this!
    Thank you so much!! That is exactly what I needed to hear today! I know second guessing is normal but it’s scary!

    Friday August 31st for me. See the nutritionist on August 8th. Not sure if I'll be put on the two week pre op diet then, as my surgeon hasnt said anything about wanting me to. Im in Australia, so its winter here. My start weight is 290lbs and lm 165cm tall.




    Planning on spending the next 10 weeks devouring the forum to learn as much as possible and starting the lifestyle changes. More Protein less carbs, Water, exercise - lve set up the treadmill in my lounge room. I want to be 8 - 10kg down by surgery day.


    That’s great that you are so motivated!! I’m supposed to lose 10 pounds before surgery, but so far I have gained 7 😭. I’m going to start drinking more shakes in place of meals in July. Maybe even start the preop early (I have to do 3 weeks). I’m so frustrated because my body sucks and the more I diet and watch what I eat the less weight I lose. I hadn’t gained anything in 6 months until a month ago. Now I’ve been tracking since June 1st and gained 5 pounds. 🤬

    I am going on vacation July 15th so I waited until vacation is over. They are suppose to call me when the doctor gets his August schedule. My surgery will be in August. I’m so ready.
    I’m going on vacation July 12th! Part of reason I switched from the June surgery date. I’m glad that you’re feeling ready! That’s great!!!

    Hey all!! My surgery was originally scheduled for June 18th, but due to a variety of reasons I had to delay until August. My new date is ..

    August 23rd!!!

    Are there any surgery twins out there? Any other August sleevers? I would love a support system, because my real life support system is tiny, and I’m starting to freak out and second guess every decision I’ve made. Let’s form a support network!

    Hahaha! You’re too funny!! Thank you! Yeah I’m really going to focus on tracking, getting in Protein, and not eating and drinking at the same time. Horrible habit to break. You’ll be here soon enough! [emoji5]

    I’m still preop, but I think I understand what you’re saying and that makes total sense. It’s almost like when I quit smoking. Now the thought of having to go outside and smoke throughout he day seems SO odd and unnatural to me. When I was trying to quit though the opposite was true. Thinking about not smoking seemed like the end of the world.
    This gives me a lot of hope for post op ️
