I just picked my surgery date: Sept 10th! I haven't been approved by insurance yet, but that's the date we are shooting for! I'm marked on the calendar!! I'm so nervous and excited, mixed feelings! Does anyone regret their decision to have the sleeve!? Is this normal to have mixed emotions?? My family isn't supportive, so I thought that getting on this site will encourage me and help me through this!! Thanks!!!

Hey!! I am new to this forum and my surgery date is August 13 2013 next week! I'm so excited and nervous, but I am ready for my new life! I got approved in about a week so it wasn't too bad at all. I am now on my pre op diet! I would be happy to help support you and encourage you! We can do this and I am so happy for you and the journey you are on!! :)

I think it is normal to have mixed emotions. Any changes or things that are new can make us uncertain, but everything will be worth it in the end!

I just received my authorization from my insurance yesterday and I am so relieved and excited. My surgery date is September sixth. I am kind running through an array of emotions right now, but I am mostly excited though. I do find that I do want to eat everything in sight, but I am trying to be very aware of my emotions and am trying to manage my emotions without food. This website has been a hige help in that.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
