Hello all, first time posting. Was hoping for advise. My VSG is scheduled 4/17/18. This is my second time going through this as I chickened out this first time 2 years ago. I have never felt 100% sure of my decision to do the VSG. Part of me knows I need to get the weight off but the other part is afraid of all of it, diet, protein, water intake, vitamins, hair loss etc and that part makes me want to cancel again and figure it out on my own. I am active but I am addicted to food. I feel maybe I should get more counseling on that before I do the surgery? I am day 5 of ten into my pre op liquid diet and have not been very successful with it! How am I going to be compliant after surgery if I can’t now! I barley get 40 oz of water and maybe one shake in right now, how will I do this after surgery? I have gotten advise from Dr’s, family, friends, counselors, and other VSG pts but I still seemed to be second guessing having surgery. Did/does anyone else feel this way?? Just being honest, please no harsh judgment I’m fragile ☹️

Mine is April 17th!!!!
